U•Center 2 office building fully leased

Forte Partners announces a 100% occupancy rate for the U•Center 2 office building, which offers a GLA of 35,000 square meters.

“U•Center 2 represents the continuation of the success story of the project we have been developing in the Tineretului area since 2019. We managed to revitalize a degraded area of Bucharest and transform it into one of Romania’s main business hubs”, said Geo Mărgescu, co-founder and CEO of Forte Partners. “Through U•Center, we have created sustainable, healthy, and safe office spaces for the employees of tenant companies. Additionally, the retail areas on the ground floor of the buildings bring services and facilities that benefit the local community. Easy access to less polluting means of transportation, such as trams and the metro, which encourage car-free commuting, has also been high on our priority list”, added Geo Mărgescu.

Completed in September 2023 and certified LEED v4, WELL Health-Safety, and WELL Core at the Platinum level, the U•Center 2 building is fully leased. The majority of office spaces in the building are occupied by IT&C companies with a strong presence in the field, including Glovo, Brinel, Eurowag, Cognyte, as well as other major players in the energy and cosmetics industries.

The retail spaces on the ground floor of U•Center 2 are fully leased. In October 2023, Auchan inaugurated a large supermarket spanning 2,600 square meters. The retail area at U•Center 2 was further enhanced in November 2023 with the opening of the eighth location of the Manufaktura The Coffee Shop restaurant chain, which includes an outdoor terrace near Tineretului Park.
