The parking garage will span four storeys, covering a gross area of 4,500m². It will be constructed alongside the new office building.

A climate-reduced concrete frame will be utilised during construction, with limited use of steel in the building’s structure.

Construction is set to begin shortly, with the project expected to be completed in the first half (H1) of 2027.
