Ilmet is the name of a high-rise building in Warsaw at Aleja Jana Pawła II 15 (German: Johannes-Paul-II.-Allee 15) in the southwest corner of the Rondo ONZ (German: UNO roundabout).
description
The high-rise building with a total height of 103 meters was completed in 1997. The investor was the Austrian company Ilbau . The architects were Milijenko Dumencic and Mirosław Kartowicz. Almost the entire area is rented out as office space. There are trade or service points only on the two lowest floors. There are 164 parking spaces underground.
The foundation stone was laid on June 12, 1995, as evidenced by a plastic tube in the entrance hall containing Polish and Austrian newspaper articles.
A striking Mercedes-Benz logo rotates on its own axis on the roof.
A commemorative plaque commemorating the 50th anniversary of the United Nations was placed on the outer wall, which is linked to the name of the surrounding roundabout.
Planned demolition
In March 2011, the then owner UBS Real Estate announced that the building would be demolished and a skyscraper would replace it. The Danish architecture firm Schmidt Hammer Lassen designed the planned 188 meter high skyscraper. No further information is available yet. The Warsaw public was very surprised that a building that was only 14 years old was to be replaced. That would be the first high-rise in Warsaw from the 1990s to be demolished.
The reason for the demolition is the relatively low height to the roof, which is 83 meters. On the opposite side of the street is the Rondo-1 with a total height of 192 meters. In recent years the western border of the outskirts with skyscrapers has shifted by a few hundred meters.
In December 2016, the building including the architectural project for the new building was bought by Skanska Property Poland.
