Property developer and investor PPF Real Estate has invested close to €1 million in redesigning the ground floor of Metropolis Center, the office building that it owns in central Bucharest. 


The space features a new reception desk, fully furnished meeting rooms designed to be used by the building tenants, and a coffee shop, as a novelty introduced by the new design.  

The canteen capacity was extended by transforming part of the former lobby in building B into restaurant space. The floor also hosts relaxing areas with small tables and sofas available for tenants and visitors. 

“The new investment is proof of PPF’s long-term commitment to Romania and to its tenants, who need change and upgrade now that they are returning to the office in a hybrid work model,” said Mirela Ciovica, Head of Leasing Romania, PPF Real Estate. 

Metropolis Center has office and retail spaces with a total surface of 19,000 sqm. PPF Real Estate owns another office building in central Bucharest. The total leasable area of the two projects stands at 35,000 sqm. 

PPF Real Estate manages assets exceeding €2.5 billion in Europe, UK, Russia and the US.
