Completed in September 2023 and certified LEED v4, WELL Health-Safety, and WELL Core at the Platinum level, the U Center 2 building in Bucharest is fully leased. The majority of office spaces in the building are occupied by IT&C companies.
The retail spaces on the ground floor of U Center 2 are fully leased. In October 2023, Auchan opened a large supermarket spanning 2,600 square meters. The retail area was further enhanced in November 2023 with the opening of the eighth location of the Manufaktura The Coffee Shop restaurant chain, which includes an outdoor terrace.
U Center 2 is a carbon-neutral building in operation (Shell & Core), considering its electricity supply from 100% renewable sources, the purchase of carbon offset certificates for its long-term gas consumption, and its high energy performance.
