Demolition of the Intraco skyscraper - a 1975 building—is beginning in Warsaw; it will be replaced by a new office building. The owner decided to demolish the structure because it could not be economically modernized to meet current standards.
The new office building will reach a height of 107 meters and will have 23 floors (compared to 39 in the old building). It has been designed as an energy-efficient structure featuring photovoltaic panels, energy recovery systems, bicycle infrastructure, and amenities for people with disabilities.
Demolition will take 12–16 months and will be carried out in phases. The key challenge is the safe removal of asbestos—a material commonly used in the 1970s that is now considered harmful. Local residents are concerned about health risks and point out the lack of detailed information on how the asbestos will be disposed of. The project Intraco is set to obtain the following environmental certifications: BREEAM, WELL, WiredScore, SmartScore, and Access4You.
