Vastint laid the foundation stone for its first residential investment in Poland
Vastint Poland marked the official start of construction works by laying the foundation stone for the Riverview investment in Gdansk. It’s the first of many similar projects planned on the Polish development market. The ceremony was held on the site where seven residential buildings will be constructed. Sales of apartments are expected to begin mid-2019, on completion of the construction.
The investment is being constructed at the junction of Na Stepce and Angielska Grobla Streets in Gdansk, in the vicinity of Granary Island, with a view on Ołowianka Island and Polish Baltic Philharmonic. Riverview will comprise seven residential buildings reminiscent of the city’s traditional architecture. A total usable floor area amounts to over 14,600 m2. The offer will include 282 units in different configurations: from studios to penthouse and from one-level suites to two-level ones. Most apartments will have a terrace or a balcony, some of them will also have a private garden. All will be characterised by a well thought-out and functional layout of the rooms. Special care has also been taken over landscaping. The inner courtyard is designed as a garden. The greenery blends in perfectly with the functional zones including a playground, indoor fitness club and BBQ area – being an ideal spot to unwind, enjoy the outdoors and have a cosy chat with a neighbour.
The residential estate is the first residential investment in Poland to apply for LEED certification.
The cornerstone ceremony was attended by the city authorities, representatives of the investor and general contractor. Our honorary guests underlined the perfect harmony between the investment and historical character of the city as well as the importance of the investment in the revitalization of the neighbourhood.
Roger Andersson, Managing Director at Vastint Poland, said, “Today we laid the cornerstone for our first residential project in Poland. I have particularly high hopes for this investment. This is a big step forward for our company. Riverview will be a model for all future residential projects we are planning to carry out in the coming years. We are proud to begin our journey on the residential development market here in Gdansk.”
