Kiev – the city of skyscrapers

According to the SkyscraperPage rating, Kiev is in first place among European cities in terms of the number of skyscrapers, and in eighth place in the world with a total number of 1222 buildings (1199 of them are skyscrapers), including the Mirax residential complex.

Despite its small population (2.9 million), Kiev is ahead of such megacities as London, Moscow, Sydney, Mexico City, Bangkok, Seoul, and so on in terms of the number of developments.

The residential complex Mirax is marked on the SkyscraperPage resource as a high-rise building. Mirax is a mixed-use project: residential complex with commercial infrastructure.

The Urban Experts team in collaboration with the British architectural firm Leslie Jones Architecture have developed a re-concept of an office building into a residential property of international class.

The multifunctional complex should first include an office center with a height of 192 meters (which was supposed to be the tallest building in Ukraine), but in the process of work and practical adaptation of the development concept, the project’s indicators were optimized today to 28 floors and a height of 110 meters. The total area of ​​commercial real estate has been approved – 137 622 m2.

The object is located in the historical place of Kiev, one of the most important tasks was to harmoniously integrate Mirax into the unique architecture of the Podolsk district. And the residential complex itself will have a parking lot, apartments, a supermarket and shops – which is a unique combination in the Ukrainian real estate market.
