Romanian premiere: Foster + Partners, a world leader in contemporary architecture, is designing IULIUS’ developments in Constanța and Iași 750 536 ROMANIA PROPERTY CLUB

IULIUS Company, one of the largest real estate developers in the country, marks a new strategic development stage and will collaborate with Foster + Partners, one of the most innovative and world-renowned architecture firms, to implement the company’s new urban development vision. The two projects that IULIUS is developing in Iași and Constanța will harness Foster+Partners’50-plus years of global expertise.

The architects’ holistic approach will be reflected in these two major projects:

  • Palas Iași reconfiguration: the company’s landmark project and its best-performing one in the retail segment outside the Capital will be reconfigured to meet the current demands of the market and the community. The transformation will highlight the uniqueness of the location by integrating the Palace of Culture and positioning it in the city’s civic and cultural center and thus enhancing the visitor experience.
  • Large-scale urban reconversion project in Constanța: an investment upwards of 800 million Euro targeting the Oil Terminal platform, which will be completely decontaminated and reconnected to the rest of the city, in a modern, vibrant, and sustainable urban environment. The concept proposed by Foster + Partners offers a vision for the redevelopment of this area, now completely isolated from the rest of the city, transforming it into an attractive hub, with integrated functions that will support the economy, tourism, and social life. The project will revitalize Constanța and strengthen the city’s status as a strategic economic, social, and cultural hub, while contributing to regional and national competitiveness.

“Our entire activity over the past 25 years has revolved around projects that transform cities into better spaces for communities. The projects initiated with Foster + Partners are two of the most complex initiatives we have undertaken so far. In Iași, we are upgrading an existing complex in an iconic historical location, where reverence for the surrounding monuments, such as the Palace of Culture, is paramount. In Constanța, we are likely dealing with one of the largest decontamination projects in Europe and the opportunity to give an identity to an area currently isolated and contaminated. We propose to fully reintegrate this urban space, now an enclave, into the city and transform it into a vibrant center with functions that the city currently lacks. With the expertise of Foster + Partners architects and by working closely with the authorities and the respective communities, we are confident that we can implement a vision that redefines urban development standards in Romania,” said Iulian Dascălu, President of IULIUS Company.

“We are honored to work with IULIUS in addressing the challenges of urban regeneration in two cities of great significance in Romania. Both the Palas Iași project, with its historical and cultural complexity, and the reconversion of the platform in Constanța, a large-scale industrial area, offer opportunities for creating lasting positive impact. It is rare to find a developer with the courage and vision to take on such ambitious challenges. We are proud to lend our expertise and we are confident that, through this collaboration, we will transform these locations into sustainable and attractive destinations, serving as models for the future,” said Maximilian and Daniel Zielinski, Senior Partners Foster + Partners.

Boreal Plus, Constanta

The 209 apartments are located in three blocks and will be handed over to the new owners starting this month. At the same time, the developer also completed a 6-level parking building (S+P+4E) that includes 290 parking spaces. The building is equipped with electric car charging stations, two high-capacity elevators, and individual underground storage boxes . Boreal Plus thus becomes the first residential compound in Constanta with a multi-storey parking building, available for purchase by the residents.

The second development phase of the Boreal Plus compound in the north of Constanta will include 132 apartments, the entire project totaling 673 units with an estimated market value of over 84 million euro. The entire project also includes the construction of a private kindergarten, a park with playgrounds dedicated exclusively to residents, but also several commercial spaces.

IMPACT develops sustainable large-scale residential projects, getting involved in numerous social responsibility projects, for the benefit of the community. Thus, in December 2022, IMPACT completed the construction of a roundabout in Constanța city, located at the intersection between Tomis Boulevard and Amsterdam Street. The new roundabout improves road traffic both for the residents of the new Boreal Plus residential compound, as well as for those who live in the other neighborhoods located in the north of Constanta and for all those who transit the city towards Ovidiu and A2 highway, streamlining traffic and increasing safety on this section. The total investment in this public infrastructure project amounted to over 450,000 euro, the beneficiary being the National Road Infrastructure Administration Company (CNAIR) through the Constanta Regional Roads and Bridges Directorate.
