Welcome to ARC: Bucharest's next-generation office hub
PPF Real Estate, a global developer and investor, is proud to announce significant progress on ARC, their groundbreaking office project in Bucharest. With infrastructure works complete and superstructure construction underway, ARC is on track for completion by Q3 2026.
Representing an estimated investment of 70 million euros, this project is poised to redefine the commercial real estate landscape, offering 30,000 square meters of premium leasable area across two underground levels, a ground floor, and ten upper floors.
Unrivaled sustainability and energy efficiency
ARC is not just an office building; it's a commitment to a greener future. It stands as Bucharest's first office building built without natural gas-powered heating, a pioneering achievement in sustainable development. Certified LEED Platinum and compliant with nZEB (nearly zero-energy building) standards, ARC exceeds nZEB requirements by an impressive 10% and generates 30% fewer emissions than the permitted threshold.
Businesses can expect significant operational savings thanks to its array of advanced features, including a silent radiant ceiling cooling system (30% more efficient than traditional HVAC), photovoltaic panels, heat pumps, and an intelligent energy management system.
Prioritizing people: comfort, health, and collaboration
At the heart of ARC's design is an explicit focus on the comfort and needs of its occupants. The building ensures a healthier indoor environment with a 100% fresh air supply and no recirculation. Beyond the building's walls, a remarkable 2,500 sqm urban forest awaits – a dedicated space for well-being.
This unique amenity features mature trees, lush green spaces, walking paths, meditation areas, sports zones, an open-air amphitheater, and urban furniture, providing perfect settings for outdoor work or relaxation, fostering productivity and employee satisfaction.
Prime location with seamless connectivity
Strategically located in Bucharest's Basarab area, ARC offers unparalleled connectivity. Tenants will benefit from direct access to a comprehensive public transport network including metro, tram, bus, and train, simplifying daily commutes for employees.
The building's proximity, just 2.5 km from Piața Victoriei, places it within easy reach of the city's commercial and administrative heart, making it an ideal choice for businesses seeking a central yet accessible location.
Modern amenities for the modern workforce
ARC provides a full suite of amenities designed to support a dynamic workforce. The building includes 430 secure underground parking spaces, numerous electric vehicle charging stations, ample bike racks, showers, and lockers – promoting sustainable commuting options.
The ground floor offers 1,800 sqm of diverse retail spaces, including restaurants, cafés, gym facilities, and convenience stores, ensuring all daily needs are met on-site. Furthermore, a dedicated user app will streamline daily operations, facilitating parking reservations, indoor navigation, and access to retail services.
Flexible spaces for diverse business needs
With standard floors offering approximately 3,000 sqm of leasable area, ARC provides flexible and expansive layouts suitable for a wide range of business operations, from corporate headquarters to agile teams. The efficient floor plates and state-of-the-art infrastructure ensure that businesses can optimize their space for maximum productivity and collaboration.
