Social aspects of our activities
The design of housing and workplaces has social implications in addition to economic and environmental ones.
When developing and managing residential properties, we take into account – depending on the specific project – aspects such as housing supply, infrastructure, common areas, and the livability of neighborhoods.
For our employees as well, issues such as working conditions, professional development, equal opportunity, and a respectful work environment are key components of our corporate culture.
Helio Tower
Example Helio Tower
The Helio Tower, located in the “The Marks” urban development area in Vienna’s 3rd district, comprises 401 apartments, including 173 rental units in accordance with the Vienna Housing Initiative and 228 condominiums.
The high proportion of rent-controlled apartments in such an exceptional and high-quality property underscores BUWOG’s commitment to affordable housing.
The Helio Tower stands out not only for its mixed-use design but also as a vertical neighborhood. In addition to common areas inside and outside the building, it features a kindergarten and two retail spaces.
