III Towers Project – the new view to Bratislava and housing in the city

One of examples, confirming that it is possible to be successful in the time of crisis, is the constructional monument in Bajkalská Street, not omissible from any point of the Slovakia metropolis. Whether the sight to it enrols from the castle hill, the coffee shop UFO on the New Bridge, Koliba or from the street parterre, from anywhere it arouses interest.

Not only the view is the bonus

The III Towers residential project is growing-up in the extended centre of Bratislava – in the New City municipal district. Strategic position, pleasant environment suitable for active rest, cultural or sports activities and wide offer of services connected with housing – its merits in eyes of developers look like that.

24 stories in three separate towers plus 211 up-to-date and flexible flats in each of them offer new opportunities of housing in various layout solutions involving areas from 40 to 220 m2, but also the new view to Bratislava and the category of this, what carries the title comfort. Interesting terraces, loggias and large windows with lowered window breasts enable impressive view practically from each flat to the Bratislava panorama with the silhouette of the Middle-aged castle, the historical centre or hills of the Malé Karpaty (the Small Karpaty).

Premises in the business passage placed in the tie (banks, foot shop, cleaner's, florist's, pharmacy, three coffee shops, pizzeria, steak house, DVD rental, shoe-shop, PNS and two mobile operators) are going to start serving inhabitants of III Towers this summer. The developer prepared for entrepreneurs interesting bonuses and discounts for all services. All owners of new flats become the co-owners of fitness (one is situated in each tower) and the space for family celebrations (the family room).

Preparation for air-condition is also not missing in each flat equipage, the noise-proof slot with ventilator in WC or bathroom, inter-flat dividing traverses from monolith of 200 mm thick ferro-concrete and lighting device in loggia. Kitchen furniture does not belong to standard equipment of the flat.

Business passage, services, surrounding

The III Towers complex is separated from the street by the green zone with park treatments and benches. The underground and first four aboveground storeys are common for all inhabitants (the business passage on the ground floor, the restaurant, the coffee shop and the pharmacy). Each of towers has its own reception with 24-hour watching service, which monitors the entrance and the common spaces by a camera system.
