The project developer, the company HOCHTIEF Development Czech Republic s.r.o., has signed a contract with the first tenant of the office building Kavčí Hory Office Park.
Employees of the company Wüstenrot, which has been known in the Czech Republic especially as a building loan and savings company, will move into 5 storeys of the building, the total area of 5.000 square meters.
Wüstenrot offers
At present Wüstenrot offers, in addition to the building savings and loans associated with living purposes, also life and non-life insurance and mortgage loans.
“For the time being the company is housed in three buildings in Prague's Smíchov, and by moving all of our employees into one building our services will become more efficient and at the same time the company will fulfil its slogan which says: “all under one roof“.
Our employees and clients will definitely be pleased that the building is easily accessible by means of the public transport and by car and that it provides pleasant environment in a rather attractive locality“, said member of the board of directors and deputy of the general manager of Wüstenrot, JUDr. Pavel Pektor.
Company executive of the project developer, Peter Noack thinks highly of the fact that the first tenant of this exceptionally modern building is such a renowned company: “I firmly believe that both employees and clients of Wüstenrot will find this place highly satisfactory.
As the project developer we did our best so that the building suitably fits for the locality and meets the requirements concerning modern offices of the 21st century.“
The Kavčí Hory Office Park
The Kavčí Hory Office Park is situated on the land of the area of approx. 20.000 square meters nearby the crossroads of Pujmanové street and Na Hřebenech II in Prague 4. The interesting-looking office building of the gross above-ground area of 43.000 square meters was designed by Ing. akad. arch. Michal Gabriel.
The building is designed as a ridge system, where the linking block connects four wings, perpendicular to the block, with six or eleven storeys respectively. The land, on which the Kavčí Hory Office Park is built, was once used for storing purposes. The new building will thus increase the value of both the land and the adjoining locality.
The building will be surrounded with park greenery which will suitably complement the greenery of the nearby Central Park.
Before the building activities were started the building had been purchased by the company Europolis Real Estate Asset Management s.r.o.
