The project has high environmental ambitions and will upon completion be certified according to BREEAM NOR Excellent. The building will be very energy efficient, partly thanks to its own solar plant on the roof. Centrally located on Skøyen – one of Oslo's main hubs – the project will have few parking spaces, but 630 bicycle spaces.
Construction will start in October 2016. The office part of the project will be completed at the latest in October 2018, while the apartments will be ready for occupancy in December 2018.
