According to <a href=\"https:\/\/english.eurobuildcee.com\/?page=news&amp;id=12567\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Eurobuild<\/a>, Skanska purchased the seven-story building two years ago for an undisclosed amount and immediately embarked on a \u20ac31 million ($34.15 million) redevelopment of the property that was completed last month. Corso Court offers 185,140 square feet of Class A office space, as well as an underground parking garage for 302 vehicles. The building, which has green features such as energy-efficient heating, ventilation and cooling systems, bike storage spaces, is expected to receive LEED Platinum certification.<\/p>\n<p>Conveniently located near the city center and has immediate access to the K\u0159i\u017e\u00edkova metro station, restaurants, coffee shops and other amenities, Corso Court is an ideal location for large corporate tenants and medium-sized businesses.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, online travel agent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Expedia<\/a> signed a lease agreement for 7,300 square meters (78,600 square feet) of office space at Corso Court and is expected to move its European back office operations in the building by the end of the year. The remaining space is occupied by Skanska, which is set to relocate its construction, development and residential divisions there.
