Polish Waters to relocate Gdańsk office to Tryton Business House

The State Water Farm Polish Waters has signed a lease for 3,092 square metres of office space in the Tryton Business House in Gdańsk, part of the Globalworth portfolio. The lease was facilitated with the support of consulting firm Cushman & Wakefield.

The Regional Water Management Board in Gdańsk, part of Polish Waters, will move from its current locations — including a historic standalone building — into the modern office complex. The shift will consolidate operations, as the board currently works from two separate sites, which has posed organisational challenges. Additionally, the Regional Directorate of State Forests, which currently hosts part of the board’s offices, plans to reclaim its space for its own needs.

The Tryton Business House is nearly fully leased, reflecting strong demand. Anna Zygmunt, Junior Asset Management & Leasing Manager at Globalworth Poland, noted that the choice of Tryton by Polish Waters reinforces the building’s reputation for offering high-quality, professionally managed office space suited to the needs of both private companies and public institutions.

Globalworth has worked with public sector tenants since it entered the Polish market seven years ago, with its tenant list including diplomatic posts, chambers, and representative offices. In April, the Labour and Social Insurance Department and the Intellectual Property Division of the Regional Court and the Court of Appeal in Gdańsk also moved into Tryton.

Cushman & Wakefield’s negotiator, Samanta Kiełdanowicz, highlighted that the deal reflects a wider trend of public institutions relocating to modern, well-located office buildings. While the lease had to reconcile the specific operational needs of a state institution with standard commercial market terms, both parties reached an agreement that aligns with Polish Waters’ long-term goals.

The Tryton complex offers 25,500 square metres of office and service space. Planned updates in the second quarter of 2025 will include a refreshed main lobby. Polish Waters will occupy the third and fourth floors, with a cabinet-style office layout. The fit-out, designed and implemented by Globalworth’s in-house Workplaces department, will incorporate acoustic, energy efficiency, data protection, and security features.

Project Manager Joanna Liberadzka from Globalworth noted that the company’s experience with public sector projects has allowed it to tailor solutions to meet functional, procedural, and organisational requirements. The fit-out work is being delivered in a design-and-build format to meet tight deadlines, with ongoing close coordination between the project team and the tenant.

Located at Jana z Kolna Street, near the Gdańsk Shipyard and the European Solidarity Centre, Tryton Business House consists of two six-storey buildings and an eleven-storey tower, all connected by covered walkways. The building holds a BREEAM Excellent certification and operates entirely on green energy. It provides strong connections to public transport, easy access to Gdańsk Lech Wałęsa Airport (about 20 minutes by car), an underground car park with 262 spaces, and facilities for cyclists, including covered bike stands and changing rooms with showers.
