Offices, residential apartments and a mall near Sofia ring road
A brand new neighborhood will be formed in the south-eastern part of Sofia city, very close to the ring road and just behind IKEA furniture store. It will feature Sofia offices of various size, several residential buildings and a mall. One part of the new neighborhood is already completed, another part is going to open in one year time, while the entire complex will be ready by 2019. The project is known as the Sofia Ring development and is set in the area between the districts of Bistritsa and Simeonovo. Here are already located the IKEA store and is being constructed the Sofia Ring Mall, which is expected to open doors in March 2014. The new district will be serviced by new lines of the public transport, which will help not only those who want to shop, but also people who work in the offices in that part of Sofia.
The second phase of the project will focus on the construction of the business zone with offices, sports equipment, park with a lake and a hotel. The last phase of the project will cover the construction of apartments and houses. It is expected that as many as 5000 people will live and work in the new district.
