Kenya Commercial Bank Plaza
In December 2010, construction of a new headquarters building began in the Upper Hill section of Nairobi. Construction is expected to take approximately two years, with anticipated occupancy beginning in January 2013. The new Kenya Commercial Bank Plaza (KCB Plaza), will consist of twenty-one (21) storeys, comprising about 171,800 square feet (15,960 m2), of rentable office space, and enough parking for about four hundred fifty cars. The owners of the building are the Kenya Commercial Bank Employee Pension Fund, who are funding the US$26 million (KES:2.1 billion) construction.

Famous quotes containing the words commercial and/or bank:
“The commercial class has always mistrusted verbal brilliancy and wit, deeming such qualities, perhaps with some justice, frivolous and unprofitable.”

“It was like passing a boundary to dive
Into the sun-filled water, brightly leafed
And limbed and lighted out from bank to bank.
That’s how the stars shine during the day.”
