GetResponse buys into Arkońska

The two buildings, now to be known as Nowa Arkońska, are to be renovated. GetResponse is to partner with Torus, the original developer of the centre, which is now to be the centre manager.

You could say we know these buildings inside and out. With hindsight, we know which solutions have proven effective and what, by using current technology, we could do better. Besides the obvious improvements, such as roofing renovations, we plan to replace the HVAC system, install a new BMS, and upgrade all the lighting fixtures to LEDs, which will significantly improve energy efficiency.
Sławomir Gajewski, chairman of the supervisory board at Torus.

A gym is planned for one of the buildings that will be open to both tenants and residents. Nowa Arkońska will also be modernised to improve access for those with limited mobility. The purchaser, GetResponse is an email marketing firm with an online campaign management platform, which has been a tenant in the centre for the last twelve years.

We want to offer some of the space to smaller companies that, operating in a rapidly changing market environment, need flexibility for their office space needs. A custom-made office in a new building is typically leased for a minimum of five years. Such a time frame and financial commitment are unrealistic for many smaller companies, which are also looking for offices in modern complexes and attractive locations. We plan to fill this niche.
Aleksandra Grabowska, CEO of GetResponse Properties.
