€22 Million Mixed-Use Tower Planned In Neapolis, Limassol

This new €22 million mixed-use tower is set to transform Limassol’s Neapolis area, marking a significant investment in the city’s emerging skyline. Developed by P.G. Economides Properties Ltd, the project has secured Environmental Authority approval and is poised to commence a 28‐month construction phase following permit issuance.

Project Overview

The development will be built on a 3,123 square metre plot along 28 October Avenue, one of Limassol’s main coastal roads. According to the environmental assessment study, the tower will reach a height of about 87 metres. The building will include a ground floor, mezzanine level, 18 upper floors, a roof garden, and two underground levels primarily used for parking and service areas. The project is designed to accommodate both office and commercial activities.

Design And Layout

The two basement levels will cover approximately 4,780 square metres and will mainly serve as parking and support areas. The ground floor, with an area of about 651 square metres, will include a reception area, dining space, and additional parking facilities.

A mezzanine level will provide extra space for dining and terrace seating. The upper floors will be used primarily for office space, with a total office area of approximately 7,470 square metres. Certain levels will also include shared facilities as well as areas designated for events and reception functions.

The roof garden will include landscaped areas together with shared spaces and technical infrastructure.

Strategic Location And Connectivity

The tower will be located in a mixed-use urban zone that already includes residential buildings, offices, and tourism-related businesses along Limassol’s seafront.

Access to the site will be provided through Dandi Street to the east and Raphael Street to the north. The location also offers proximity to Griva Digeni Avenue and nearby commercial landmarks, including the Oval building. The Vathia Potamos area is located approximately 77 metres to the east of the site.

Parking And Accessibility

In addition to the extensive parking accommodations offering 146 parking spaces (including provisions for persons with disabilities), the project also supports alternative transportation needs, featuring dedicated spaces for 20 bicycles and 15 mopeds. Such forward-thinking planning reinforces the development’s commitment to accessibility and urban mobility.

Lithuania And Cyprus Forge Enhanced Partnership In Tourism And Defence

Expanding Cooperation Beyond The Surface

Kristupas Vaitiekūnas highlighted opportunities for closer cooperation between Lithuania and Cyprus during his visit to Nicosia for the informal ECOFIN meeting. Speaking to the Cyprus News Agency, the Lithuanian finance minister said both countries share common challenges and could expand collaboration in areas including tourism, defence and financial services.

Addressing Shared Challenges

Finance Minister Kristupas Vaitiekūnas said Lithuania and Cyprus face similar security and economic pressures despite their geographic differences. Particular attention was given to emerging security threats, including drone-related risks, alongside the importance of maintaining resilient financial sectors. According to Vaitiekūnas, stronger coordination in those areas could deliver long-term economic and strategic benefits for both countries.

Focus On Fiscal Stability And Energy Security

Discussions at the ECOFIN meeting are expected to focus on Europe’s economic outlook, energy market volatility and fiscal stability. Kristupas Vaitiekūnas warned that instability in the Middle East could continue affecting oil markets and broader economic performance across Europe. Housing affordability was also identified as a growing challenge, with rising property prices in cities such as Vilnius reflecting broader pressures seen across European markets.

Coordinated Energy Strategy And Future Investments

The Lithuanian finance minister also called for a more coordinated European approach to energy and economic resilience. Vaitiekūnas suggested that targeted and temporary policy measures could prove more effective than large-scale structural reforms in addressing short-term pressures. Lithuania continues to increase investment in renewable energy generation and storage infrastructure as part of efforts to strengthen energy independence and begin producing surplus electricity by 2028.

Support For Ukraine And Enhancing Defence Funding

Finance Minister Kristupas Vaitiekūnas reaffirmed Lithuania’s support for Ukraine, describing the war as a broader struggle tied to European security and democratic values. He also backed accelerating Ukraine’s accession process to the European Union, arguing that deeper integration would strengthen regional stability and economic prosperity. Vaitiekūnas welcomed the EU’s SAFE programme, which is expected to support Lithuania’s defence capabilities while contributing additional assistance to Ukraine.

Looking Ahead To A More Unified Europe

Addressing the European Union’s future budget framework, Kristupas Vaitiekūnas said increased funding for security and defence represented a positive development. At the same time, he warned that reductions in cohesion funding and agricultural support could negatively affect purchasing power and long-term European unity. Lithuania is expected to place continued emphasis on Ukraine and regional security ahead of its upcoming EU Council Presidency in early 2027.
