All about the MILLENNIUM City.
MILLENNIUM City was built in 1999 by architects Gustav Peichl, Boris Podrecca and Rudolf F. Weber as Austria’s first town-in-town concept that combines office and living space with shopping and entertainment areas. On the 50,000 square meters of MILLENNIUM City there are over 100 shops from international top brands as well as numerous restaurants and entertainment options. An average of 14 million people a year visit Austria’s most modern shopping and entertainment center on the waterfront. The sale of MILLENNIUM City by MPC Capital to the consortium consisting of the Kaufmann Group and Morgan Stanley is considered the largest real estate deal of 2014.
