OLYMPUS
TOWER

One of the most important real estate developers in South-East Europe entered the Romanian market at the beginning of the new millennium and completed the Bucharest milestone office building, delivered to a top 10 commercial bank.

The investor acquired the contract for building the new headquarters of Bancpost, member of Eurobank EFG. Bancpost is one of the largest and most prominent banks in Romania, with over 3,700 employees, 285 branches, eight Regional Centers and twenty-five Business Centers. Established in 1991 as a full-service public bank, Bancpost became the first fully-privatized bank in Romania, in November 2002.

Eurobank EFG is a European banking and financial services institution with total assets of €84.3 billion (December 2009). The group currently employs over 23,000 people and benefits from a European-wide branch network of over 1,600 units.

The headquarters’ design called for a five story, AA-class office building dedicated to a single client, with strong focus on macro and micro features. Renowned for its attention to details, excellent execution and timely work, Global Vision took responsibility for property development (entitlements, project design) and building construction & civil engineering (interior architecture, on-site civil engineering – alleys, parking lots – and landscape architecture).

After 13 months of work and a total investment of €25,000,000, Olympus Tower was delivered to its client. It comprised 25,000 sqm and 9,000 sqm of developed land (landscape and parking).

Olympus Tower benefits from an outstanding location in one of the most coveted areas of Bucharest: the northern part of the city, between the most beautiful lakes of the area. More conveniently, this area is home to the most elegant residential villages as well as the busiest corporate HQs in the city. The present contract also covers property management services, such as facility management and IT & Administration management.
