BAM’s contract covers the structural works, excluding the façade and finishing, of the Infinity housing, office and retail scheme, which is being developed by Immobel.
The residential tower Infinity Living – which will be the first high-rise residential building in Luxembourg – comprises 150 luxury apartments on 25 floors. The office building Infinity Working will ahave eight floors of flexible office space rated as ‘Excellent’ under the BREEAM system. The two towers will be linked together by a retail gallery featuring a planted roof.

The joint venture will start construction of the offices this month. The residential part is due to be completed mid-2020.

The project includes 20,000m² of housing, a shopping centre of 6,500m² with 23 shops, restaurants and cafés as well as an office building of 6,800m² and basements of 15,700m².
