Firm Begins new Office Building Project

Edimara Properties Limited, a joint venture between African Capital Alliance and Samges Investments Limited has started the development of Alliance Place, an innovative office building in Lagos.

The firm, which hopes to redefine office space standards in the country, said that it is leveraging on complementary property development skills and an impressive track record to deliver a truly international, environment-friendly office building.

The developers said Alliance Place will be built on twelve levels and will employ green, sustainable development features, while also boosting smart technology in its building management systems and services at relatively low occupancy costs to its tenants.

According to the statement, “A high performance glass curtain wall and contemporary interior finishes will be provided for ease of maintenance. High level user-friendly security and access control systems will be given top priority for tenants and visitors. Finally, a circular traffic management system will enhance safety and accessibility to and within the building, which has a four-floor car park. The project is expected to be delivered by November 2016 and one-third of the office space has already been committed to tenants.

The statement also added that the project is executed by a distinguished team of consultants: Greenhouse Inc. Limited and EQ3 (Project Managers), Ngonyama Okpanum & Associates (Architects), Arup (Civil & Structural Engineers), Kunle Ogunbayo Associates (Mechanical & Electrical Engineers), Natuhab (Project and Regulatory Consultants) and HOS Consult Limited (Quantity Surveyors).

“The main building contractor is BCL Limited. They bring 25 years of experience to the Lagos construction arena and utilise leading edge methodologies to ensure that budget, quality and delivery programs are met,” the statement added.
