LEUVEN, BELGIUM
Vander Elst, Leuven
De voormalige sigarenfabriek “Vander Elst”, onderdeel van de stadsontwikkeling
“Vaartkom”, maakte plaats voor een gemengd project met 3.335 m² retail en
13.806 m² moduleerbare A – klasse kantoorruimtes.

Student tower Waterview is the final building of the urban development
‘Vaartkom’ in Leuven. While achieving a height of 55 m and a total
surface of 55,000 m², this project will comprise 461 student flats,
1,001 parking bays and 5,435 m² of retail space.

Waterview, Leuven, Belgium.
The tower of the Waterview project consists
of 461 student flats, several retail areas and a
spacious parking.
Door het aanvatten van de afwerkingsfase van de studententoren Waterview
krijgen zowel dit prestigieuze project als
de ganse stadsontwikkeling De Vaartkom stilaan hun definitieve uitzicht.
De voltooiingsfase loopt volop en zodoende wordt de laatste hand gelegd aan
de kwalitatief hoogstaande afwerking.
Het gevelmetselwerk is volledig uitgevoerd, de eerste vliesgevels verschijnen
van achter de sluier van gevelsteigers
en de parkingafdichting wordt boven
de retailruimtes geplaatst. Hierdoor zijn
ook de werken met betrekking tot het
parkinggedeelte van het gebouw zo
goed als afgerond.
In de studententoren zelf rijdt de afwerkingstrein in volle vaart. Voor meer dan
de helft van de verdiepingen werden
de technieken volledig geïnstalleerd en
zullen pleister-, chape- en gipskartonwerken snel volgen. Voor de afwerking
van de kamers wordt gestreefd naar
een hoog akoestisch comfort door de
keuze voor mooie en duurzame materialen. Begin februari werden twee
modelkamers voorgesteld aan makelaar
Optima en aan de KU Leuven, die zal
instaan voor het beheer en verhuur van
de studentenflats. Deze modelkamers
werden op veel enthousiasme onthaald.
Begin april zal een nieuw filiaal van
Albert Heijn zijn deuren openen in de
“Waterview will become an
iconic pearl, both for the
redevelopment of
the Vaartkom-area and for
the city of Leuven.
The skyline of the city will
be redrawn, thanks to the

unique appearance and
color shades.”
Waterview studententoren. Ghelamco
is erg opgetogen om na het succesverhaal in de Ghelamco Arena opnieuw
met Albert Heijn te kunnen samenwerken en hen in dit gloednieuwe project te
mogen verwelkomen.
Met de eindmeet in zicht krijgt de
volledige stadsontwikkeling De Vaartkom langzaamaan zijn ware gedaante. Waterview wordt een pareltje dat
beeldbepalend zal zijn voor de herontwikkeling van De Vaartkom en voor de
stad Leuven. Door de beeldige, ranke
studententoren met een unieke uitstraling en kleurschakering wordt de skyline
van Leuven hertekend.

URBAN DEVELOPMENT
‘FILATURE DU RABOT’:
A NEW AND MODERN
CITY AREA
GHENT, BELGIUM
“Local government trusts
that this large-scale building
project will bring new
dynamism to this part of
town, thanks to its many
strengths such as the green
habitat, the upgrading of
houses and shops, the attractive architecture
focusing on ecological
solutions and low energy
values a.o. Consequently,
a new and modern city area
is being created.”
Het totale project behelst ca. 35.000 m²
ontwikkelbare bovengrondse vloeroppervlakte, waarvan ca. 6.200 m² bestemd
is voor commerciële doeleinden (retail,
kleinhandel, kantoren, horeca). Daarnaast
worden ook verschillende woontypologieën gerealiseerd. De 225 woningen omvatten 178 appartementen, 29 grondgebonden woningen, 12 duplexen en 6 lofts.
De lofts zullen ondergebracht worden in
het bestaande historisch fabriekspand,
dat samen met de oude fabrieksschouw
gerenoveerd wordt en behouden blijft.
Deze elementen zorgen voor een levendige herinnering aan de oorspronkelijke
functie van het terrein.
Het stadspark dat grenst aan de site zal
tot diep in de Filature Du Rabot binnendringen. Fiets- en wandelpaden zorgen
voor een fysieke verbinding tussen park
en het project. Door de keuze om alle 400
parkeerplaatsen naar de ondergrondse
verdieping te brengen, kan een groen en
doorwaadbaar binnengebied ontstaan.
Het dak van de winkelruimte wordt bovendien ingericht als een groot publiek
toegankelijk groendak en het speelse
karakter van de architectuur laat toe
groene daken op verschillende niveaus
van de gebouwen te voorzien. De nieuwe
bewoners zullen op die manier kunnen
genieten van een ruim terras en van de
luxe van een private groene buitenruimte.
The adjacent park will enter into Filature
Du Rabot, since cycling and walking paths will
generate a physical connection between the
park and the project.
This new building project, located at the site of the departed jute spinning mill
‘Filature Du Rabot’, will become a new urban area offering a complete mix of retail and
shopping area, houses, apartments, lofts and greenery. The site is located in
a popular neighbourhood, at walking distance of the historical center and alongside
the so called ‘Nieuwe Vaart’ (New Canal).

G H E L A M C O B E LG I U M
De eerste werken op de site werden
opgestart en de beëindiging van de wegeniswerken wordt reeds voorzien in de
maand juni. Ook de eerste woningen zullen voor de zomervakantie gebruiksklaar
zijn. De constructie van de verschillende
appartementseenheden wordt gefaseerd
opgestart vanaf najaar 2015, wat kan
resulteren in een volledig afgewerkte site
binnen minder dan 3 jaar.
De plaatselijke overheden vertrouwen
erop dat dit grootschalige bouwproject
een nieuwe dynamiek zal creëren in dit
gedeelte van de stad dankzij de vele
troeven zoals de goede leefomgeving, de
herwaardering van huizen en winkels, de
aantrekkelijke architectuur met de nadruk
op ecologische oplossingen en lage
energiewaarden, enz. Hierdoor wordt een
nieuw en modern stadsgebied gecreëerd.
Het vertrouwen van de stedelijke diensten
in de site vertaalt zich in de getoonde
interesse voor de verkoop van de 20%
sociale woningen die worden voorzien.
Op die manier werken Ghelamco en Stad
Gent samen aan een duurzame oplossing voor de problematiek inzake sociale
huisvesting.
RESIDENTIAL COMPLEX
‘BLAISANTPARK’
GHENT, BELGIUM
The site has excellent accessibility, both
from the E40 highway and from Ghent’s
harbor. Additionally, it is located within a
10-minute walk from the historical center
and benefits from the immediate proximity of tram and bus stops. Blaisantvest
is a dynamic and fun environment where
mostly young people live. The project
borders a public park, which is planned to
be expanded. The city government invests
abundantly to reconvert the neighborhood
in a fresh and green environment connecting residents and visitors.
Thanks to these multiple strengths, over
85% of the residential units have been
sold. Opening of the retail areas is planned for April 2015.
The carcass construction of Blaisantpark
is completed. The student flats were finished successfully in September 2014 and
many students already had a pleasant experience staying in the complex during the
first semester. The works on the courtyard
with outside parking are started as well.
“The thought-through mix of
different types of
apartments, correct pricing
and qualitative workmanship
are strongly appreciated by
buyers. These strengths,
combined with the ceasing
efforts of brokers
Dewaele Vastgoed and
Agence Rosseel, result in an
actual sales figure of 90% for
the apartments and 85% for
the student flats.”
With its Blaisantpark project, Ghelamco contributes to Ghent’s urban renewal project
“Bruggen naar Rabot” (Bridges to Rabot). The city of Ghent invests abundantly in living
quality, public space and social coherence in this part of town. The project Blaisantpark
fosters and benefits from this actual upgrade.

KORTRIJK, BELGIUM
INTERVIEW WITH FOCUS/WTV
MICHAEL GHEYSENS: Given the unique
location of this project, we decided to
appoint Andrew Bromberg, an internationally renowned architect. Bromberg
has a visionary and creative approach to
incorporating residential landmarks into
an existing urban fabric. This ability is
demonstrated by the many design awards
he has won both at home and abroad.
FOCUS/WTV REPORTER: In addition to
the two residential towers, the site also
includes a number of other dwellings.
The area is as big as 6 football fields.
21,000 m² has been set aside for housing,
6,000 m² for retail space and 3,000 m² for
offices.
MICHAEL GHEYSENS: Our aim is to create a new living space and environment
for this part of the city. Living, working,
leisure and shopping have been brought
together in a carefully considered way
– all designed around a central ‘green
lung’. This green lung takes the form of
communal, public grounds extending
over an area of around two hectares.
An exciting new urban development plan is coming to Kortrijk soon.
The most striking feature of this redevelopment at the site of the ‘Oude Blekerij’ will be
two residential towers situated at the waterfront. Other housing will also be developed in
addition to these two towers. In all, space is planned for 21,000 m2 of residential,
6,000 m2 of retail and 3,000 m2 of offices - all set amid beautiful greenery
close to the city centre.
FOCUS/WTV REPORTER: The project
will also include a fitness centre. The city
of Kortrijk and project developer Ghelamco are consulting with Unizo and the ‘K in
Kortrijk’ shopping centre about the retail
space. The aim is to attract young thirty-somethings with children to the site.
FOCUS/WTV REPORTER: The blank wall
along the avenue in Kortrijk will continue
to exist, but a number of openings will be
added, complete with greenery. Although
the spatial development plan is still at the
design stage, the aim is for this section
of the city to be enhanced during the
city council’s current term of office. The
total cost of implementing this project is
approximately 40 million euro.

OFFICE BUILDING
IS RISING IN WARSAW
WARSAW, POL AND
The area of the Daszynskiego Roundabout is subject to very strong changes
in urban space. The second line of Warsaw’s Underground is currently being built,
and Ghelamco is realising a completely new project according to an innovative
architectural and city-planning concept: the Warsaw Spire and Plac Europejski
(European Square). On this square, Building B of the Warsaw Spire Complex is already
finished and welcomed its first tenant. Meanwhile, Building C is arriving at a finishing
phase. The structural work of the 220-metres tall Tower comes to an end too
and the assembly of its façade started.
For more info: www.warsawspire.pl
“The tenants are not only
attracted by
the unique appearance of
Warsaw Spire and
its impressive façade, but
also by the idea of
combining top quality
workspace with newly
created public space.
This public space, named
Plac Europejski
(European Square),
will offer employees, along
with city inhabitants a place
to meet, relax and
participate in cultural events.”
The façade of the Warsaw Spire tower is
not just another façade. It is as unique
as the entire project. What is now being
installed on the tower Building A is a
second to none example of tailor made
design that completes the sophisticated
geometry of the tower. The building will
be covered with 30,000 m² of unitized
façade, a surface exceeding the area of
an entire side building of the complex.
The façade is completely prefabricated
under controlled conditions, which ensures the best performance parameters
during the building’s entire lifetime.
Each panel of the Eastern and Western
façade has a trapezoidal shape and will
be installed on unique steel cantilevers,
spanning to over 8 m out of the concrete
structure. In this way, the “wings” and
“collar” will be created, giving the Warsaw Spire its typical and award winning
design. The podium part on the Northern
section of the tower will also be covered
in a unique way. A surface of almost
2,000 m² will be cladded by large dimension glass panels, fixed on steel ribs of
up to 15 m high.
Another distinguishing item of the façade
will be its stunning combination of steel
and light. On every third level, a horizontal half-round 3 mm stainless steel element, polished to shine like a mirror, will
be installed. This will create a characteristic signature for the tower, especially in
combination with the underlining elegant
LED illumination.

The tenants are not only attracted by the
unique appearance of Warsaw Spire and
its impressive façade, but also by the idea
of combining top quality workspace with
newly created public space. This public
space, named Plac Europejski, will offer
employees, along with city inhabitants a
place to meet, relax and participate in cultural events. Plac Europejski will become
one of the most attractive locations of
Poland’s capital because of the presence
of restaurants, bars, a panoramic terrace
and an arcade designed for temporary
art exhibitions. Ghelamco has invited the
world-famous architectural studio Wirtz
International Landscape Architects to
cooperate on the design of this square.
This studio also worked on the Elysee
Palace Gardens and Jardin du Caroussel
in Paris, Jubilee Park in London and many
more. As such, it is guaranteed that the
Plac Europejski will become a perfect
location for meetings and urban events.
The multiple strengths of the site resulted
in the signing of different lease agreements in this early stage. In January
2015, Benefit Systems S.A. became the
third tenant of Warsaw Spire and is the
first tenant for the adjacent Building C.
The first two tenants together, EU Frontex
and BNP Securities Services, occupy
over 90% of Building B. EU Frontex
moved into the new offices in January
2015 and BNP Securities Services plans
to move in by the second half of this year.

The Dworzec Gdanski project consists of an integrated multimodal transport node.
The project not only provides in transport but also foresees in commercial and office space.
The entire PKP Dworzec Gdanski project
will comprise 165,000 m2 and will feature a
new train station, office buildings, a retail
area and most probably a small residential
area. The concept of the investment is representing our strategy of creating projects
that benefit the city and its inhabitants.
Within the commercial buildings we plan a
vast public area, filled with greenery, elements of small architecture and gastronomy. These elements will create a functional
space for the tenants, visitors and passengers of the trains. The train station itself
is going to get a totally new and modern
look - on the covering platform we plan six
buildings with the ‘ground floor’ lobbies
on 16 m height situated in a nice garden
setting. Below will be a multi-storey car
parking and retail facilities.
The investment will also have a very high
importance for the city’s transportation
strategy. It will become one of the main
commuting hubs for the future - with a
metro station, buses and trams. During
the period that PKP will perform the
works regarding the modernization of the
railway tracks in Warsaw, this train station
will play a crucial role in Warsaw’s public
transportation network.

“Despite the negative influence of geopolitical events that do not add optimism to business globally,
there was not any real impact on the warehouse market. About 30% of all the deals are requests for
warehouse space of over 20,000 m2. Both foreign and Russian companies continue to grow their
business, their production, sales, etc. Most tenants understand that right now the market offers unique
opportunities to grow and consolidate stocks in Class A logistics complexes, for further business
growth. And smart developers like Ghelamco are ready to offer flexible commercial terms and smart
technical solutions to meet tenants’ needs.”

EDUCATION PROGRAMME
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM
Developing Distinctive Leaders - Growing and Sustainable Family Businesses has been
sponsored by Paul Gheysens, the founder and CEO of Ghelamco, a large family-run
commercial property company that has global interests and is headquartered in Belgium.
“Family firms are not
simply a unique
phenomenological
setting but are
significantly different
from non-family firms”
Gomez Mejia, Cruz, Berrone & DeCastro, 2011
THE CHALLENGE
To create a distinctive leadership
development programme for family (and
non-family) members of family businesses
that ensures:
· Safe custodianship of the family
business by the succeeding generation
· High levels of leadership integrity,
competence and confidence
· Long term sustainable growth
· Service to the communities in wich the
business operates
Due to the high value that family business
occupy in the global economy, and the
pattern of diminishing commitment that
successive generations tend to have on
these businesses, Mr Gheysens sought
the expertise of Regent’s University London to enhance and develop the skills of
current and future family business leaders.
Family businesses are critical to the
global economy. They account for around
two-thirds of all business enterprises.
They are responsible for up to 80% of
jobs in most countries and they contribute
an estimated 70% - 90% of GDP globally. Yet less than a third of family-owned
businesses survive beyond the second
generation. The ownership, leadership
and management of family businesses
requires special knowledge and skills to
overcome some of the complex and criti-
cal obstacles to their long-term success.
This innovative programme is designed
specifically to help future-proof family
businesses. Developing Distinctive Leaders will enable participants to enhance
their strategic and leadership capabilities as well as grow their confidence as
custodians or associates of the family
business. It will impart advanced technical knowledge and cultivate essential
leadership skills that will enable family-run
businesses to grow globally and succeed
at the highest level.
The programme has been developed by
Regent’s University London for experienced leaders in family businesses who
wish to broaden their perspectives in the
global market. Participants will be drawn
from businesses all over the world, so that
a critical yet constructive leadership con-
versation will be initiated and developed.
In this forum participants will exchange
their views and experiences to generate
pertinent strategic development agendas. The programme will bring together
renowned faculty who are specialists in
family business structures, dynamics and
initiatives. Together with guest speakers
who have personal experience of the
challenges family businesses face, they
will form the bedrock of an informed,
generative discussion that will take a
long-term strategic view.

“The high level of synergy between Ghelamco’s international and entrepreneurial approach
to business and Regent’s global outlook, unrivalled student experience and highest quality
education makes us obvious partners for the development of the exciting
Distinctive Leaders programme. That members of my own family will be participating
demonstrates the significant confidance and trust I have in the Regent’s experience.”
