Mall Bansko Will Be Completed Until Summer 2008

The construction of the first mall trade center in Bansko was officially started on 11th of June. Mall Bansko has extended built-up area of 5576 square meters and is situated in the immediate proximity of the cabin lift and Kempinski Grand Arena complex.

Investor of the project is the American-Bulgarian company “Bansko Privilege Resort” Ltd. It is planned that the investment in the site, together with the project and the construction will amount to more than 5 million Euros. This was said by Georgi Razvigorov – one of the Directors of “Bansko Privilege Resort” Ltd.

This will be the first project of the “mall” type on the territory of Bansko Municipality. Nearly 30 shops on four of the floors are planned to be constructed. The building works will be completed in one year’s term.

The location of the trade complex, and the development of Bansko during the recent years are prerequisite for the development of such for a trade site project, servicing the golf and ski tourism, said representatives of the investor company. Among the tenants, there will be a bank, a mobile operator, and a photo services office. The sports shops and shops for professional equipment will be the most numerous ones in Mall Bansko. So far, interest has been demonstrated for 90% of the areas. The rent prices vary between 17 and 35 Euros per square meter, depending on the location and size of the shops.

The idea for the investment project arose two years and half ago. The design works began two years ago. Some alternatives were consecutively offered.

The trade-and-entertainment complex will offer entertainments and shopping opportunities. It will have four above-ground and two underground levels.

There will be three entrances for visitors – two of them will be for pedestrians, and one – for vehicles. There will be a road entrance for supply, as well as a service entrance. The evacuation exits will be three.

The complex has underground parking lots with controlled access, four levels of commercial areas, a panoramic restaurant and a casino on the highest level, with marvelous views to the mountain through the large glazing.

The volumetric-spatial design entirely conforms with the purpose of the site. Each floor is designed as a mix of communication and commercial areas.

The complex exterior design is entirely coordinated with the specific architecture of Bansko. That is why, natural materials were prepared for the construction – stone tiling, wooden hanged façade, glass and glass hanged facades, as well as architectural metal elements. Their balanced application, the harmonious combination of solid walls and openings, oriels and inclined planes make a complete and integral architectural image.
