Works on the Willbrook Platinum Business and Convention Center have been completed and the venue will be officially opened on October 6, Daiana Voicu, managing partner of Willbrook International, the project’s developer, told Business Review. The scheme has been built in compliance with green development guidelines following a total investment of EUR 100 million.
Willbrook Platinum Business and Convention Center, which comprises two buildings, is located near Baneasa Forest with direct access to DN1.

The buildings include five floors with 37,000 sqm of class AAA office space. The project also features a convention center with 2,100 seats, a fitness center and a 400-seat restaurant. There are 850 parking spaces out of which 500 are underground.

So far, 10,000 sqm has been leased and the company’s objective is to lease more than half of the project by yearend. The average rent is EUR 14-16. The scheme won two prizes at the International Property Awards in the UK.

Last week, Realitatea Media announced that it had leased space in the center, over two floors, and that it would move its headquarters there in October.

On the office segment Willbrook has also built the Cathedral Plaza tower which is located near Saint Joseph’s Cathedral in Bucharest.Since 2006 the project has been the subject of litigation between the company and the Romanian-Catholic archbishopric in Bucharest. The firm has also developed several residential projects including the high-end Oxford Gardens.
