8 Smolna Street in Warsaw, Multifamily residential building in Śródmieście, Poland
The building at 8 Smolna Street rises nineteen floors high and features an extended roof that creates a distinctive silhouette against the Warsaw skyline.
Constructed in 1976 by architects Jan Bogusławski and Bohdan Gniewiewski, this structure marked the first skyscraper built during Poland's socialist period from 1947 to 1989.
The building received the name 'Młotek' from local residents due to its hammer-like shape, reflecting the industrial focus of Polish architecture in the 1970s.
Located in central Warsaw, the building contains multiple residential units and provides residents with direct access to public transportation and urban amenities.
The structure was initially planned as a hotel for Polish citizens living abroad before being converted into residential apartments due to housing demands.
