Project Grønttorvet

Project Grønttårnet

Scheduled for completion in July 2019, Grønttårnet is a turnkey student housing tower block, comprising 8,052 sqm floorspace above ground distributed on 189 highly space-efficient residential units in addition to one commercial unit, communal space and storage facilities. The property benefits from an attractive location in an emerging residential district of Copenhagen, viz. Grønttorvet, Valby, with swift access both to central Copenhagen and environs.

In terms of building design, the property will consist of an 18-storey tall residential tower, constructed of brown bricks to blend in with its green and scenic surroundings. In addition, the tower will feature a ‘roofless’ top- storey, open to the sky, serving as a roofop garden with a green oasis of pine trees to complement the overall look of Grønttorvet. Grønttårnet offers a wide range of student dwellings to suit the taste and pocket of both singles, friends sharing and couples. Accommodation therefore comes in ten different unit types. 90% of the units are single- bedroom flats (bedsits) whereas the remaining 10% are two-bedroom flats and handicap-friendly units. All residential units have bathroom and kitchen facilities. Internally, the units will in general be space-efficient and open with bright rooms due to large panel windows. In terms of student-friendly facilities, the property accommodates five communal units (151 sqm in total), which can be used for various purposes, e.g. study rooms, game rooms and computer labs. Comprising 243 sqm, the commercial unit on ground floor would be ideal for a café or similar. In addition, the property has 32.5 sqm storage space. The property has access to parking facilities both on ground and in neighbouring parking garages and basements. Nearby, a large-sized bicycle parking facilities, holding all of 322 bicycles, will be available to the students.

The footprint of the property has a hexagonal shape and to ensure optimum space utilisation, 10 types of student housing units have been designed. For further details, please refer to pp. 9-11. On the 16th and 17th floors, the students will have access to common roof terraces, including common kitchen facilities suitable for large get-togethers while enjoying a spectacular view of Valby and Copenhagen. On the split levels of the property, the plan is to grow plants, giving the building a green look.
