The Alexandros Dimitriou Building (1961), designed by Neoptolemos Michaelides, is one of the first modern buildings outside the walls of Nicosia. Originally conceived as a small commercial center with exhibition spaces and offices, it stands out for its functional layout and pioneering structural design without intermediate columns. Sixty years later, after renovation by Iereides and Michael Architects, the ground floor continues to host commercial use, while each upper floor now contains a single apartment, offering modern residences with panoramic views of the city walls and Nicosia’s historic monuments.
