Project
Centred around the historic landmark building that once housed the publishing industry of Latvia is the tomorrow of the capital Riga in the making – an entire district that will encompass an unique, sustainable business centre, a multi-functional centre for leisure, sports, recreation and culture, a hotel, and an array of public space solutions to knit together the Riga Knowledge Mile, the surrounding residential areas and the city itself. In short – this is the definitive Central Business District of Riga.
Take your business to the next level, whether you are a successful start-up, emerging, fast-growing company or a talented freelancer. The Business Centre offers 11 stories of A-Class offices with 24/7 access in the 120-meter-long, 50-meter-high glazed building.
Business
The non-load bearing structure of the building provides total freedom of customizing floor plans according to the tenants’ needs. There are open floor plans, individual finishes, superior natural daylight in every workplace, and a completely customizable climate system. All this efficiency and refinement is accompanied by breathtaking views, state of the art amenities, and environmentally friendly and sustainable solutions in a convenient location.
The Multifunctional Centre provides 7 500 m² of retail lease opportunities on the ground floor, and unique landscaping solutions for an active lifestyle on the roof of the building. The public spaces are designed for quality leisure at any time of the day.
Leisure
The building has a unique feature – a football and multifunctional sports fields on the rooftop – the first in the Baltic States. A running field will allow employees and visitors to have more sports activities during breaks. Enjoy the spacious food court with 300 seats, shopping, and fitness facilities.
In the heart of the meta-city lies the historic Press House building: a 22-storey high pearl of modernist architecture designed by Jānis Vilciņš. A symbol of the free press and the first attempts of the Latvian journalists and editors to speak freely via printed media during the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Stay
The building will be preserved for its symbolic meaning and historical significance and refurbished into a 4-star Holiday Inn Hotel with 305 rooms. Apart from the historical character of the building, guests will enjoy a spectacular panoramic view of Daugava and Old Riga. Restaurants and cafés will be a perfect place for a delightful dining experience or post-work get-togethers. And no need to worry about traffic jams – the hotel is located a 15-minute drive from the Riga International Airport.
