Castellum is planning to erect an office building comprising 5,800 sq. m. and 5 storeys in the attractive Kopparlunden area, with direct connection to the central districts of Västerås. According to calculations, the total investment will amount to approx. MSEK 195, and construction will begin during Q1 of 2020. The major tenant will be Försäkringskassan (the Swedish social security authority) which has signed a 6-year leasing contract.
"The investment we're planning for Västerås is in line with our strategy of adding to our property portfolio with modern offices for companies as well as for state authorities and government agencies. The building will be constructed in an attractive area under rapid expansion. It's the kind of background we see as a very good investment," says Henrik Saxborn, CEO at
Försäkringskassan is a new tenant for Castellum in Västerås. Approximately 350 of the authority's employees will work in the new offices, which will feature a clear environmental profile. Sustainability was a significant factor for the new tenants. The building will be certified according to the Miljöbyggnad Gold standard, which means compliance with the highest demands for sustainability. A sun-panel cluster as well as an outdoor gym have been planned for the roof of the building.
Castellum already owns a number of properties in the Kopparlunden area, which is one of the most dynamic areas in Västerås, with an inspiring industrial-history background theme. Today's Kopparlunden has been developed into the most highly populated cluster of modern and innovative offices in Västerås.
