In 2022, Karimpol Polska signed 11 leases with a total area of nearly 22,200 sqm in Skyliner, its flagship project in Warsaw’s Wola district. The commercialisation of the building has reached 80%. CBRE Poland has brokered the lease of all spaces.

Demand for Warsaw offices remains at the level we saw during the market boom, despite the fact that many tenants are optimizing their floor space, says Walter Herz.
