Matexi Polska has received the final building permit for an investment in Warsaw’s Wola at 54 Żelazna St. The contractor has also already been selected – it will be CFE Polska. The residential building will house 144 units of varying metric areas, commercial premises on the ground floor and a two-storey underground garage with electric car charging.
Construction of the project designed by the SAAW architectural office will begin in the first quarter of 2024 and will be completed in early 2026.
The architectural design of the project bears the characteristics of an inner-city development. It envisages the construction of an elegant, modern building consisting of two blocks of different heights: 5-storey and 9-storey. The brick and coral colour of the façade refers to the historic brick buildings in the neighbourhood. Characteristic details of the façade of the new development include prefabricated elements, openwork balustrades and greenery pots. A representative entrance in the central part of the building’s ground floor from Żelazna Street leads to a spacious lobby and further to an internal green courtyard. A recreational space for future residents has been designed on the green roof.

The design of the SAAW office was created with care to preserve the integration of the urban space. Its task is not only to become part of the urban fabric of the strongly developing, contemporary heart of Warsaw, but also to become a recognisable part of it. The design team took into account both the architectural context of the site – the neighbouring buildings, including the Mennica Residence, the Mennica Legacy Tower and the Norblin Factory, as well as the functional and social context – the transformation of Warsaw’s Wola from a poor district of empty factories and ruins of pre-war tenements into a multifunctional, vibrant area of the city.
