Waterfront’s mixed-use offering will be complemented by a premium serviced office concept that addresses the needs of companies seeking flexible working conditions, as the project secures this year’s largest office lease transaction in Gdynia. The Shire – Beyond Coworking will join the tenants of Vastint’s development in Gdynia this September.
Waterfront is a diverse quarter in the seaside part of Gdynia. Vastint’s investment transforms the post-industrial port area into a welcoming urban space. Its waterfront location is among the most attractive addresses for residents, tourists, and businesses alike. Apart from workspaces, Waterfront also offers apartments, a hotel, a medical and dental centre, and ground-floor retail.
“The Shire – Beyond Coworking brand is the first to introduce the nationwide concept of premium serviced offices to Gdynia. We are not your typical coworking space – our spaces are distinguished by their boutique character, the highest quality interiors and attention to detail. In the Waterfront, we will create the largest serviced office of this class in the city, located near the seaside and marina, in the very centre of Gdynia. The top two floors will feature a space with two terraces, which will form an integral part of the workspace. We are confident that this will be one of The Shire’s most unique locations in Poland,” comments Rafal Pisklewicz, Managing Partner at The Shire – Beyond Coworking.
“We are delighted that The Shire has chosen Waterfront as its first location in the Tricity. It’s a brand that fits well with the character of our Waterfront project. Its presence expands our mixed-use offer with coworking spaces and responds to the growing interest in workspaces that combine flexibility, high standards, and a convenient location. We believe that The Shire’s new space will be an attractive proposition for companies seeking comfortable, well-designed offices in the centre of Gdynia,” adds Marek Ulanecki, Senior Leasing Manager at Vastint Poland.
“I am glad to have supported The Shire – Beyond Coworking in their long-term brand growth. The deal required a perfect match with the building, not just in technical terms, but also to provide workspace meeting the high standards of a premium brand. Waterfront is a location that offers significant business potential, unique exposure and an environment for building a user experience. The Shire – Beyond Coworking’s entry confirms the growing importance of the TriCity region as a market for flexible, premium office space. Gdynia, thanks to its location and the quality of new developments, is becoming a natural destination for companies seeking comfortable yet flexible offices,” adds Mateusz Strzelecki, Partner / Head of Tenant Representation at Walter Herz.
