Value-Add Office Building
Value-Add Office Building
Omega Court
Omega Court is a clear illustration: a landmark office building designed by Assar at a key access road to central Brussels, offering 18,000+ sqm of offices plus a 600 sqm restaurant/bar/coworking hub and a private central courtyard opening onto a secluded garden.
The building’s column-free floors and abundant daylight enable flexible layouts and efficient use of space, while planned and ongoing ESG enhancements—rooftop solar, geothermal energy, and IoT-driven monitoring of energy and water—support improved performance for both tenants and owners, with a BREEAM Excellent rating targeted and an expected 25% reduction in energy consumption after completion of the geothermal installation.
Combined with strong mobility and amenities (showers, 200 parking spaces, bicycle parking, EV charging) and a tenant base that already includes Sony Depth Sensing, RMB, Circle K, and Stanley/Stella, Omega Court shows how value-add execution can strengthen resilience, attractiveness, and income quality in a growth location.
Marnix 13–17
Exit in 2018 (Brussels CBD / EU District)
Marnix 13–17 was a landmark office investment in Brussels’ Central Business District, right at the gateway to the Leopold (European) district. Set on the inner ring road at the intersection of the City Centre and the EU quarter, the location benefits from a dense ecosystem of European institutions, financial services and professional firms, alongside a strong mix of retail, restaurants and day-to-day amenities.
The envisaged redevelopment of the plot foresaw two interconnected buildings—technically independent yet linked at ground-floor level—on a standalone plot bordered by Avenue Marnix, Rue des Hornes and Rue du Champ de Mars. The envisaged project offered a well-balanced programme of office space complemented by retail, archives and underground parking.
With Porte de Namur metro and bus stops directly in front of the building and fast connections to key stations and major road axes, the asset combined high visibility with excellent accessibility.
Project update: This asset has been successfully sold ahead of the envisaged redevelopment, creating significant value for investors.
