With an unrivalled residential, commercial and amusement offering, La Gare is set to become the beating heart of Addis Ababa, delivering fundamental advantages to local communities and the economy via commerce and job creation. The launch of ONE La Gare represents a most important step towards the cognizance of this vision, and we look ahead to introducing this landmark development to potential proprietors and residents.

Standing at 21 stories tall, ONE La Gare homes one- to four-bedroom units provide striking skyline views of the city, as well as an expansive lobby with ample natural lighting. The building is outfitted with 24-hour security and a resident parking at the podium level.
