Vattanac Capital Tower, a long-anticipated gleaming tower that dominates the city’s skyline from Monivong Boulevard, continues to attract tenants to its commercial office space.

The most recent tenants to occupy the building are Qatar Airways and investment company One Asia Capital, with Qatar occupying 180 square metres of office space and One Asia Capital taking 262 square metres.

 

Philip Scott, surveyor at CBRE Cambodia, calls the tower Phnom Penh’s most prestigious commercial space and a development of “unrivalled quality with an exclusive mixture of Grade A offices and luxury retail.”

 

Offices need nearby coffee shops, quipped Scott, who added that Vattanac’s basement-two car parking was fully functional. And while there was still some evidence of finishing work in the general area around the tower, the office space in Tower 1 was fully open and available for tenants, with Schindler Lifts and architectural, engineering consultants Arup, and Vattanac Bank poised to move in.

 

The 188-metre Vattanac Tower was designed by TFP Farrells, and is LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design)Silver precertified, but is aiming for Gold certification, which would make it a member of a relatively small club of office spaces worldwide that meet the highest standards required by the United States Green Building Council.
