Refurbishment of Orco Tower’s interior completed |
After being refurbished internally, office building Orco Tower has been
gaining popularity. Over 90 percent of office space has been already
leased. TATA, Commarch, PNO Consultants, Adecco and Calzedonia Polska
are among new tenants.
When the Endurance Fund, the investment fund sponsored and managed by
Orco Property Group, acquired Orco Tower on July 14th 2006, the
building was only 20 percent leased following the departure of anchor
tenant, Plus GSM. Now almost all available office space has been
contracted.
“We have decided to implement an extensive renovation and to
significantly improve the energy efficiency of the building. We have
noted that an attractive design and efficient building is as important
for tenants as lease prices and available amenities”, said Douglas
Noble, Director of Orco Property Group Warsaw.

The entry space, reception hall, security area, all lift lobbies,
toilets and common circulation areas have been rebuilt. New finishes on
floors, walls and ceilings have given the interior a fresh futuristic
look. Tenant spaces have been renewed, spaces which feature raised
floors, air conditioning, and generous clear floor to ceiling heights
of 2.85m.
“We have implemented low-energy lighting controlled by motion
detection, and utilised energy-saving LED technology”, said Bogdan
Goławski, sustainability manager. “Although the main entry is
considerably lighter, the use of energy in this area has decreased. The
concept is consistent with Orco’s strategy of sustainable development”,
added Goławski.
At the moment Orco Property Group is preparing the refurbishment
project for the façade. These works should be completed in
approximately four months. |
