About the property

 

The 884 sqm property is located in the area of Kerameikos, near the homonymous metro station and the former Gazi industrial complex. The point of interest is its proximity to the restored industrial complex of the former gas plant, known as Gazi. Gazi is the only surviving gasworks plant in Greece and one of the few in Europe. It constitutes a distinctive sample of 19th century industrial architecture. The buildings of the former industrial complex nowadays house cultural and recreational activities, attracting visitors from Greece and abroad.

The restored Gazi plant operates as a cultural center, housing the Technopolis – City of Athens multi – purpose building complex, whose major part is the Athens Industrial Gas Museum. Technopolis has gradually become a hub of cultural events, thus helping to upgrade Kerameikos area. The nearby square is surrounded by restaurants, taverns, bars, cafes, clubs, as well as theaters and galleries, having transformed its neighborhood into a lively place of social gathering and entertainment.

Nestled in the heart of the Athens historic city center, on the prime Aiolou pedestrian avenue, this building is just a few hundred meters from the main shopping street of Ermou, and a short walk from key historic sites, the Greek Parliament and Syntagma Square.
In the surrounding area, dozens of trendy cafes, local tavernas, and shops combine old and new worlds, delighting the millions of tourists drawn to the city every year to visit one of the greatest symbols of Greek history – the Acropolis.
The 1,500 sqm building is characterized by classic lines, with broad windows that flood the interior with natural light. This development will convert the building into a modern urban hotel, with around 30 stylish, vibrant guest rooms, and a rooftop with a breath-taking, panoramic view of the Parthenon.

The Neighborhood

No other neighbourhood in Athens has seen such sweeping changes in recent years. Keramikos and its neighbouring Metaxourgio district came to life in the recent decades. Clothing wholesalers give way to more cosmopolitan pursuits—from cocktails and dancing to award winning restaurants and entertainment venues. Alekos Fassianos’ The Myth of Neighbourhood installed in Metaxourgio metro station is a subtle nod to the area’s rebirth. Old warehouses have been transformed into galleries, clubs, cosy bars, experimental stages, and Michelin-starred restaurants that set the trends and the rest of the city follows.
