About the area

The area, at a glance

Western Bucharest developed around the Politehnica and Militari poles and the axes towards the A1. The area combines modern office projects with quick access to the motorway and to the large residential districts. It is chosen by companies that balance costs with accessibility for employees.

History

The Gara de Nord–Grozăvești–Politehnica corridor is Bucharest's second-oldest industrial area: first food and military factories, then machine-building plants in the communist period. For decades, Grozăvești remained a working-class and student district, with the Spicul bread factory and the Regie student halls. Semănătoarea metro station, opened on 19 November 1979 on the M1 line, was renamed Petrache Poenaru in 2009. The conversion started with the Apaca halls, built between 1948 and 1986 and turned into offices from 2007 onwards, under the name Cotroceni Business Center. CA Immo built Orhideea Towers between 2015 and 2019, and One United Properties delivered the first phase of One Cotroceni Park in December 2021. In 2024, Sector 6 City Hall announced an urban regeneration plan for the Grozăvești district.

Amenities and access

Public transport is the area's strong card: the M1 line serves the office cluster through the Grozăvești, Politehnica and Petrache Poenaru stations, and Orhideea Towers has its own tunnel with direct access from Grozăvești station. By road, traffic relies on Iuliu Maniu and General Paul Teodorescu boulevards, and West Gate Business District exits directly onto the A1 motorway, through the Preciziei–Militari area.

Facilities in the area:

  • the Politehnica University campus and the Regie student complex;
  • Militari Shopping Center and a Metro store, within walking distance of West Gate;
  • inside West Gate: an outdoor pool with a running track, a tennis court, the KomFitness fitness centre, a medical clinic, restaurants and a heliport;
  • Grozăvești park, a green space that has shrunk in recent years.
