Speedwell starts construction of mixed-use project in northern Bucharest

Business Forum
Speedwell has entered the development stage of Queens District, a mixed-use project in northern Bucharest. The development will deliver 237 apartments and 22,500 sqm of zero-carbon offices.

Construction began in December 2025 on the first two residential buildings comprising 147 apartments and a 22,500 sqm Class A office building. Currently, 40% of available units in the first two residential buildings have been sold or reserved, with 70% of purchases made by investors.

"Queens District is designed for investors who look beyond the present and stands out as one of the most reliable and profitable real estate investments of the moment," said Yannick Van de Parre, Country Manager of Speedwell. The project combines residential, office, and retail spaces in proximity to Bucharest's business district, educational institutions, and medical centres.

The development features apartments with 1-4 bedrooms, premium finishes, underfloor heating systems, and individual heat pumps. The office component comprises two 7-floor buildings with floor areas ranging from 1,150 to 3,100 sqm and 282 parking spaces, already obtaining Breeam Excellent certification. The building will operate with zero carbon emissions and generate up to 40% lower operating costs for tenants.

"The premium location, just a 10-minute walk from the Aviatorilor subway station and Promenada Mall, guarantees a sure increase in value over time," noted Mădălina Arsene, Sales Director at Speedwell. All ground-floor commercial spaces in Building C were sold within one week of the sales launch.
