Spaces, a global concept from the Netherlands and offering solutions from the area of flexible workplaces and co-working, has leased 4,200 sqm of office space in Centrum Marszałkowska. As a consequence, Warsaw will become the brand’s first location in Poland. Experts from JLL advised Spaces on the process of negotiating lease terms. Baker & McKenzie supported the company in all legal aspects. The developer of Centrum Marszałkowska – BBI Development – was represented by CBRE and Markowska – Materla law firm.
“Spaces offers workplaces that are suitable for start-ups, small local companies as well as representatives of international corporations seeking places that encourage creative work. We operate wherever innovative business is developing. So, we decided to enter Warsaw as it is a city with huge potential. It’s full of life and supports the development of creative sectors. Furthermore, it has a wide range of offices, services and entertainment,” commented Klaus Koponen from Spaces.
Spaces, a network from Amsterdam, currently operates in 25 countries across six continents. It offers flexible office spaces adjusted to the specific needs of its clients. It provides an opportunity to lease an office desk for an hour or two, a conference room or larger office modules that are available round-the-clock. All offices have a modern design that contributes to a comfortable working environment. Divided into zones that allow for working in full focus as well as holding business meetings and having meals together with other users of the office space.
“The excellent location of Centrum Marszałkowska – at the intersection of two metro lines – conveniently fits into the specific needs and philosophy that Spaces from Regus group adheres to. Our investment was developed with a focus on both Polish and international companies that look not only for modern and flexible workplaces but also space that will encourage both networking and the establishment of new business relationships. Complementing our project’s portfolio with such an innovative concept as Spaces is a favorable message for all of Centrum Marszałkowska’s tenants,” commented Michał Skotnicki from BBI Development.
Centrum Marszałkowska is a class A+ office and retail project located at the very centre of Warsaw, on the crossroads of Marszałkowska and Świętokrzyska Streets as well as in proximity to two metro lines. Furthermore, it is located just a few minutes’ walk from an art gallery, the Warsaw Philharmonic, a cinema and plenty of cafes and restaurants. The building will be developed in place of the Sezam Department Store which was one of the elements of a great architectural project developed within the Eastern Wall. Part of the complex consists of an urban passage meticulously renovated by the investor. The passage is dedicated to Witold Rowicki – conductor, composer and long-term Artistic Director of the Warsaw Philharmonic.
Centrum Marszałkowska will offer over 13,500 sqm of modern office space and approximately 3,000 sqm of retail space for lease.
