"ParkLake will offer a new perspective on shopping and leisure activities in Bucharest. We are creating more than a shopping centre. It's about a place where you can also relax, have a walk, eat traditional food, gather with friends, practice sport, watch live shows or enjoy seasonal fairs and events. As our concept says, we want to reunite the idea of nature, family and shopping under the same roof, and create a space for more than shopping. We are very excited to see this day coming up soon on September first", stated Ingo Nissen, Managing Director of Sonae Sierra responsible for Development in Romania.

David Sharkey, Caelum Development CEO, said: "A whole new experience is being shaped and will soon open to the inhabitants of Bucharest. ParkLake will be an outstanding addition to the neighbourhood and the city offering new experiences for shopping and leisure, but also sports and relaxation. ParkLake is already proving to be a new hot spot on Bucharest's map with exceptional interest from international, national and local tenants, helping to create the perfect place for enjoying your time with friends and family."
