The second phase of the Centrum Południe office complex, offers over 21,500 sqm of sustainable office and retail space. It comprises 15 above-ground floors and two underground levels, providing over 200 parking spaces and a variety of tenant amenities. Strategically located on Powstańców Śląskich Street, the building is close to the city's main railway station. It also offers excellent accessibility via sustainable transport options, including public transportation and bicycle paths.
– This transaction confirms that regional office markets attract investor interest, particularly the best located assets with high standards of sustainable development. At Skanska, we focus on delivering workplaces that respond to the evolving needs of tenants – ensuring accessibility, safety and long-term value – said Mariusz Krzak, Executive Vice President Operations Poland at Skanska Commercial Development Europe. – We are pleased that INVESTIKA trusts us and values our properties – this is another of our office buildings they have purchased, following P180 in Warsaw – he added.
– “The strategy of the INVESTIKA Real Estate Fund is to grow presence in Poland’s key central and dynamic regional markets, offering high-quality commercial premises with strong tenants in sought-after business locations. Our latest acquisition—the second phase of Centrum Południe in Wrocław—fits perfectly with this strategy,” said Jaroslav Kysela, Member of the Board of Directors of INVESTIKA, the investment company managing INVESTIKA Real Estate Fund, and added: “We are pleased to have once again cooperated with our trusted partner Skanska Commercial Development Europe, the leading developer of premium offices in the CEE region.”
Environmental responsibility in action
Designed following ESG principles, Centrum Południe has been awarded LEED Platinum certification. Its entire electricity consumption is powered by renewable energy, backed by a declaration of origin. The building consumes up to 39% less energy than its LEED certification benchmarks and up to 58% less water. These savings are achieved through a range of solutions and devices, such as chilled beams or a grey water system. The specially designed facade maximizes natural light while minimizing interior heating and optimizing its energy efficiency.
Sustainability extends beyond the building's shell and core, permeating its interior design. The entire office space is leased by BNY, a global financial services provider, as a single tenant, occupying 13 floors. BNY further certified its office space under LEED Commercial Interiors, achieving the highest score in Poland and the second highest in Europe, as assessed by independent experts.
Open, friendly and accessible to everyone
Centrum Południe also holds two other prestigious certifications: WELL Gold, and Object Without Barriers. The latter promotes spaces consistent with the idea of universal design – so that they are accessible to people with disabilities and other users with special needs. The building also offers access for office employees to 40-meter, fully equipped loggias on each floor, which serve as outdoor spaces for work and meetings with city views. Additionally, its surroundings are open to members of the local community who can enjoy a public basketball court, swings or relax among the greenery. Almost 25% of the entire complex is outdoor space with green areas, designed on the basis of an ecological report and biodiversity assessment prepared specifically for it. The area features rain gardens, pollution-neutralizing pavement, and even a large air-purifying mural by Zuzanna Wollny.
