PAST
The Domenii - Exhibition area is one of the oldest in Bucharest, full of historical buildings that hide untold, sometimes forgotten stories. The name of the neighborhood is related to the development period corresponding to the years 1920 - 1940 and the houses were dedicated to the Bucharest elite of the time.
The history of the Domenii area has its anchor in 1916, when an area of 7 ha located outside the city, part of the Herăstrău Estate, was parceled out, and the first lots were sold to employees of the Ministry of Agriculture and Domains (hence the name: Domilor Park).
The neighborhood is in sector 1 of the capital, one of the most desirable residential areas both in the interwar period and today.
The villas in the "Park" of the Domains were built in different architectural styles: neo-Romanian, art deco, modernist, cubist / bauhaus.
Also in the interwar period, the rest of the North area of the Capital is outlined with Kiseleff Road, completed by Filipescu Park, Bonaparte Park, and between the current Aviatorilor neighborhood and Herăstrău Lake, the third park is outlined. (3)

The upward trend and the constant demand for new apartments that correspond to the highest current housing standards will be maintained in the coming years and from this perspective investing in a home in sector 1 is a unique opportunity.

FUTURE
By the end of 2021, approximately 156,000 square meters of Class A office space and approximately 1,500 new homes could be built in the Romexpo Exhibition Area, in the four projects that have already received building permits. To these will be added mixed projects in the planning phase, which could bring another 100,000 square meters of offices and over 1,000-1,500 homes in the next 5-10 years.
In addition to the Impact company, led mainly by Gheorghe Iaciu, the Exhibition area attracted, like a magnet, a series of relevant projects, with a future perspective, which raise the level of the area and give confidence in the value of real estate investments. (3)
