CBR Building

CBR Building

The CBR Building is an iconic modernist office building, designed by Belgian architect Constantin Brodzki and completed in 1970. The building is known for its innovative use of 756 precast concrete modules with organic shapes, which lend it a sculptural appearance. In 2018, it was designated a protected heritage site for its architectural significance. That same year an extensive renovation project took place, bringing the building up to modern standards. The total area of the building is approximately 10,000 m².
