| Skanska starts work on Budapest’s greenest office project Swedish construction firm Skanska is developing a new office property with a strong environmental profile in Budapest, Hungary. Skanska's investment amounts to EUR 32.5 M, about SEK 300 M. The office property, which will be named Green House, comprises 18, 500 square meters of leasable space and will be completed in the second half of 2012. Green House will be designed to comply with the requirements for LEED Platinum certification, the highest level of the international environmental rating system. Skanska will thus be the first company in Hungary to achieve a LEED Platinum pre-certified office building. Construction work will commence after receiving the building permit and will be completed in the latter half of 2012. Since Skanska does not conduct construction operations in Hungary the construction project will be executed by an external contractor. write your comments about the article :: © 2010 Construction News :: home page |
