A Sneak Peek into the World Trade Center at Chennai
According to experts at CBRE India, Chennai is viewed as a stable commercial market that contains the perfect environment to sustain long-term investments. When on one hand, Bangalore and Hyderabad continue to be thriving commercial markets owing to the IT/ITES, Chennai has multiple revenue-generating sectors such as manufacturing, automotive and banking, financial and insurance sectors. Chennai has an edge over other markets owing to the availability of skilled manpower and physical & social infrastructure.
Not just Chennai but the collective of Southern markets account for about 40% of hiring because of the strong economy and skilled manpower.
Until last year Chennai was seeing a dip in the market due to the lack of supply of IT office spaces. Keeping that in mind, Brigade Group is now bringing one of the world’s most coveted office spaces into the Chennai commercial real estate market.
Chennai is all ready to join the ranks of 334 cities across the globe with the establishment of the latest World Trade Center in the city. This project is undertaken by Brigade Group in collaboration with Singapore-based investment corporation GIC.
The 1.8 million sq.ft. Grade A++ commercial space comes with an all-inclusive work ecosystem that would include residential, hotel and retail spaces making it a classic example of mixed-use development. The project is set to include two office towers with Tower 1’s structure consisting of 3 basements and G+ 27 floors, and Tower 2’s structure consisting of 3 basements and G+19 floors, respectively. The total development potential of WTC Chennai lies approximately within 2.6 million sq.ft.
The project is also strategically located at the well-known IT Hub i.e. OMR road, pre-toll at Perungudi, and lies close to TIDEL Park, Holiday Inn Hotel and the international airport.
The fabulous architectural design at WTC Chennai is being devised by HOK, the largest U.S based architecture engineering firm who has consistently been recognized as leaders in a sustainable and high-performance design. A key feature of the project includes the supremely designed modular façade that deflects the solar radiation before it reaches the building envelope while ensuring maximum daylight utilization. The building also comes encompassed with a state-of-the-art lobby, ample car parking, 100% power back-up and a lush podium that will be the highlight of the development.
An iconic commercial led development with SEZ Benefits and design that will represent everything that a typical modern business would wish for. The World Trade Center, Chennai will be known as one of the tallest establishments, in the city, so far.
