Budomel, Multi-story building in Strzeszyn, Poznań, Poland
Budomel is a multi-story building in Strzeszyn consisting of two connected structures with differing heights. One section rises nine floors while the other extends two floors above ground, creating an asymmetrical form.
Construction began in the late 1970s as a planned Central Center for Staff Development and Agricultural Progress but remained unfinished. The building stood incomplete for decades before demolition started in 2021 to clear space for new development.
The structure has influenced local urban narratives and sparked discussions about architectural preservation versus modern development in Poznań's evolving cityscape.
The building is visible from public viewpoints but remains inaccessible to visitors as demolition has taken place. The site is now under development with restricted access during the construction phase.
The third floor of the taller section features windowless walls typical of storage facilities. This unusual design element became one of the building's most distinctive characteristics.
