The developer of the project is the Polish branch of the Belgian company Ghelamco . The completion of the construction work is planned for the beginning of 2021.

The skyscraper will have a roof height of 180 meters. With the technical equipment on the roof, the total height will be 202 meters. 57,000 m² of office space will be created on 45 floors. The planned construction costs are around 200 million euros. The architectural office responsible is Projekt Polsko-Belgijska Pracownia Architektury .
One element of the facade at ul. Prosta will be the installation of a so-called “Dragon Skin”. This part of the facade will consist of several thousand movable tiles and will therefore be constantly reshaped by the wind.
Further high-rise office buildings are also currently being built on Rondo Daszyńskiego : The Warsaw Hub , Skyliner and Generation Park . The Warsaw Spire is 150 meters away (at Towarowa Street ) .
