Greece is currently building Europe’s largest and greenest smart city, known as Ellinikon. This ambitious project, located near Athens, aims to create a “zip-code paradise” in the area. The Riviera Tower, set to be Greece’s first skyscraper, is at the heart of the development.
Ellinikon is an $8 billion project that has been in the works for over a decade. The smart city will include not only a skyscraper, but also a high-end mall and a sports park. Developers aim to combine beautiful coastal views with cutting-edge technology and environmentally friendly infrastructure.
The first phase of the Ellinikon project is scheduled to be completed by 2026 and it is projected to attract one million new tourists and inject 3.3 billion euros ($3.6 billion) into the Greek economy. The creation of Ellinikon is part of a larger trend of high-tech new cities being developed around the world, with most projects typically taking place in China or the Middle East.
An experience center has been established as part of the Ellinikon project in order to showcase the site’s history and highlight the eco-friendly technologies that will be integral to the city’s future. Housed in a restored hangar from the former airport, the center opened its doors in 2022 to offer insight into the vision and planning behind this innovative smart city.
