Speedwell, a Belgian-rooted developer active in Central and Eastern Europe, has officially opened Tribera Warsaw, a 675-bed purpose-built student residence on Obrężna Street in Warsaw's Mokotów district. Delivered in under 18 months including full fit-out, the project is also Speedwell's first completed development in Poland. Construction began in March 2025 and was completed by September 2026, with general contractor Pekabex making extensive use of prefabricated concrete elements to meet the tight schedule.
Designed by 22Architekci, the 14-storey building sits on a 2,290 sqm plot and offers fully furnished studios and twin rooms, each with a private bathroom, kitchenette, workspace and individually controlled air conditioning. Communal facilities include co-working and quiet study areas, a shared kitchen, cinema, games room, a 24-hour gym and two terraces overlooking Warsaw. The project has been designed to meet BREEAM Excellent certification requirements, and an automated underground car park provides 150 spaces.
"Warsaw's student population is growing and becoming more international, while expectations are increasingly sophisticated. Tribera Warsaw is designed to be truly Gen Z-ready, combining privacy and convenience with technology, wellbeing, flexible study spaces and a strong sense of community. Its opening also marks an important milestone for SPEEDWELL as our first completed project in Poland," said Michał Stępień, Country Manager Poland at Speedwell.
Originally developed under the name MILESTONE Warszawa Mokotów, the project now forms part of Tribera, a pan-European living platform created through the merger of MILESTONE and BaseStack Living. Tribera operates more than 11,000 beds across eight European countries and integrates investment, development, delivery and long-term asset management within a single platform.
"The building offers students much more than their own private space. At Tribera, we bring shared spaces to life through events, workshops and everyday experiences that bring students from Poland and across the world together. It's about creating opportunities to meet new people, share experiences and settle into life in a new city, making the building more than just a place to live," added Miguel Torres, Head of Operations at Tribera.
The residence is within walking and cycling distance of the University of Warsaw Faculty of Management and has direct public transport links to other major universities and the city centre. Speedwell's portfolio totals 5,750 residential units, approximately 250,000 sqm of office and retail space and 25,000 sqm of industrial space, with a total development value of €2.2 billion and a pipeline valued at €1.6 billion.
