The building of the first skyscraper in Bulgaria will start by the end of this year. The 35-floor office building will be constructed near Kempinski Hotel in Sofia, which is one of the highest areas in the capital.


The estimated investment needed for the project is €45m. Roumen Markov from Joint Building Investment, the company in charge of the construction, said that he was already negotiating with future partners and potential investors.

The building area will cover over 32,000sqm. Architects have planned the construction of a helicopter landing pad and underground parking for over 870 vehicles. The facility will be for Class A office space only.

To improve accessibility to the new skyscraper, architects also plan to renovate the surrounding areas. Nearly 1km of Cherni Vruh Boulevard will run underground below a new park and a pedestrian alley will connect the two main parks in Sofia – Borossov Garden and South Park.

The renovation of the boulevard will cost over €13m and it will be the first project to be executed without municipality participation.
