Two of them (six-storey) offer a total of 17,200 sqm of commercial space – 14,800 sqm of office space and 2,400 sqm of retail and service space. In the third, an above-ground parking garage was created, offering 356 parking spaces, 49 double bicycle racks and an electric vehicle charging station.
Tenants of the Imagine office complex include EY, a global leader in audit services, and Asseco Poland, the largest provider of modern IT solutions in Central and Eastern Europe. Bluerank, WWT (World Wide Technology), Well Fitness, Philips, GE and LUX MED have also decided to lease space in Imagine.
