| Skanska develops offices for Visma at Lindhagensterrassen Swedish construction giant Skanska is continuing to develop new premises for major corporations at Lindhagensterrassen in Stockholm. The new office property comprises slightly more than 11,000 square meters and Skanska's investment totals about SEK 345 M. The property shall be characterized by energy efficiency and environmental consideration, and will be certified according to the international environmental certification system, LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design). Energy consumption will be at least 25 percent lower than the Swedish National Board of Housing's standards, which is the requirement for an EU GreenBuilding label. The tenant will be the Norwegian company, Visma, which is a leading Nordic supplier of software, accounting services and financial advisory service. Visma has signed a lease for the entire new property and will receive state-of-the-art premises designed based on the needs of the operations. The new building will be constructed in western Kungsholmen, which is one of Stockholm's most expansive areas. Here, Skanska has developed several office premises for customers including the Stockholm Public Transport (SL), telecoms company 3, Electrolux and Skandia. Including the current property for Visma, Skanska has developed about 100, 000 square meters of offices to date at Lindhagensterrassen and will continue the long-term venture of developing western Kungsholmen. In addition, Skanska is constructing housing in the area. Construction will commence immediately and implemented by Skanska Sweden. Completion is scheduled for late autumn 2011. write your comments about the article :: © 2010 Construction News :: home page |
