The first stage of Symetris Business Park in Łódź has reached its tallest structural point and the building was ceremoniously topped off.

“We reached the shell stage at the beginning of November, the installation work is in progress while the facade work as well as the assembly of windows are planned over the next dozen or so weeks,” says Tomasz Kmiecik, building site director at Symetris Business Park. The film footage from the topping off ceremony is available on Echo Investment"s You Tube channel. Symetris Business Park is being developed on Piłsudskiego Avenue i.e. the main traffic route in the city which is also called the East-West route of Łódź, connecting its two largest districts – Widzew and Retkinia. Numerous office buildings and other popular facilities are located there: Centrum Biznesu, Centrum Rozrywki Silver Screen as well as the Novotel and IBIS hotels (completed by Echo Investment) and the Galeria Łódzka shopping centre. One of the assets of the project is also the proximity of the Władysław Reymont airport. The design of the project was created in Pracownia Architektury, Urbanistyki i Wnętrz B"ART. The architecture alludes to simple forms referring to modernist architecture of the interwar period and the industrial heritage of the city. Individual floors make it possible to arrange the office space flexibly: from small, separate rooms to large open space. Spacious conference rooms, a reception area and ancillary rooms are also planned. The layout of the floors provides the natural lighting and aeration of the office space, which is serviced by modern air-conditioning and ventilation systems while large window areas provide visual, thermal and acoustic comfort. The project is being carried out in two stages. The total office area of Symetris Business Park amounts to 19,000 sqm. A number of modern technological solutions, high-end ICT connections, security, video-surveillance and access control systems have been used. The construction of the first stage is to finish in spring 2016. The project is worth app. PLN 100 mln. www.symetrisbusinesspark.com.pl
