Vastint Poland has completed the second phase of the Gdynia Waterfront project in Gdynia. The complex, located near Kościuszko Square and the President’s Basin, offers residential, office, hotel, and commercial functions.
“Gdynia Waterfront is not only an investment in modern architecture but also in the city’s future. The revitalization of Gdynia’s waterfront is reshaping the landscape and creating new development opportunities for both residents, leisure and businesses. Once the entire project is complete, it will become a vibrant social hub, offering spaces for living, working, gatherings, and cultural activities. A new heart of Gdynia will be born here”, emphasizes Roger Andersson, Managing Director of Vastint Poland.
Gdynia Waterfront is a multifunctional complex covering approximately 75,500 sqm, located on the boundary of the city centre and the waterfront on the former shoreline. For years, this land remained unused despite its significant potential. Since 2012, thanks to Vastint’s efforts, an area of over 4 hectares has been gradually developed.
The first phase, completed in 2015, included two office and hotel buildings with a leasable area of 21,600 sqm near the President’s Basin, which now houses the headquarters of PKO BP bank and the Courtyard by Marriott hotel. The recently completed second phase consists of four office and residential buildings with underground parking, located along Hryniewickiego and Waszyngtona streets.
The newly constructed office buildings, with a combined leasable area of nearly 16,000 sqm, create a cohesive frontage along Waszyngtona Street. Each building features a representative entrance with a vestibule and ground floors dedicated to commercial spaces. Additional amenities include infrastructure for cyclists and electric vehicle charging stations.
In the second row of buildings are two five-story residential buildings with green courtyards that provide semi-private spaces for residents and service points. The complex offers 126 apartments ranging in size from 35 to 173 sqm, from studios to top-floor apartments with double-sided terraces. The residential units will be sold upon completion of the project, finished with a high fit-out standard, with options for yacht- or port-style interiors.
A central passage between the office and residential buildings creates a friendly space for walking and relaxation. Among the greenery stands the historic Fisherman’s Cross, symbolizing the city’s traditions.
The investment is designed with a high ESG standard and in accordance with LEED certification criteria. The buildings feature energy-saving LED lighting, recycling systems, and an advanced Building Management System (BMS). Additionally, more than 25% of the site is dedicated to biologically active spaces.
In the final phase of the project, two additional hotels with conference facilities and a spa area will be built, along with restaurants, a multi-screen cinema, and a cultural pavilion with an art gallery.
