CEDET is a unique project of restoration and expansion of a historic building – a modernistic pearl of Polish post-war architecture. The CEDET building that combines retail functions and highest class of office space consist of two parts: a carefully revitalized department store and a completely new building located at intersection of Bracka and Krucza streets. Unique architecture and a prestigious location make the CEDET building the most desirable centre for business and social life in Warsaw. The most important streets cross here, together with tram and bus lines, as well as railways and underground, with a 20 minutes easy access to the Warsaw Chopin Airport. It is also the area of exclusive hotels, shops and restaurants. A close proximity to Nowy Świat – the most expensive retail street of Warsaw – as well as smaller Chmielna and Foksal Streets creates a unique atmosphere of the place.
