Rotunda PKO – the building of the PKO BP bank located in the years 1966–2017 at ul. Marszałkowska 100/102 in Warsaw. In its place, a new building of a similar shape was built, put into use in 2019. On February 15, 1979, the building was destroyed by approx. 70% as a result of a gas explosion, in which 49 people died and 110 were injured. On March 10, 2017, the demolition of the Rotunda began, in place of the demolished building, a new one of the same shape, designed by the Krakow studio Gowin & Siuta, was planned. The three-story building was put into use in November 2019[13]. It houses a bank branch (in the basement and on the ground floor), and on the first floor there is a café with a meeting zone.

Despite being separate and belonging to different owners, yet practically treated as an integral part of this corner of Rondo, Widok Tower was created, hence there is no point in creating a separate attraction.
Widok Towers is an office building in Warsaw's Śródmieście district on the northern side of Aleje Jerozolimskie, built on the site of the demolished Universal building (King of Billboards, some wondered if there was any building behind them at all ;-) ).

Widok Towers is a building in the neomodernist style with an office function as the main one and with additional functions: hotel and retail and service. It was built in 2020 on the site of the Universal office building demolished in 2016-2017, as part of the Eastern Wall near the new PKO rotunda and the intersection of Aleje Jerozolimskie and Marszałkowska Street.
The building has 28 floors above ground and 3 underground with 158 parking spaces. There are eight elevators inside the building cores. Its total height and height to the roof are 95 meters. The total area is 28,600 m², and the retail and service area is 3,600 m².

The PKO Rotunda is a distinctive bank building in Warsaw, originally built in 1966 as part of the Eastern Wall. Designed by Jerzy Jakubowicz, it featured a steel structure and a serrated roof. In 1979, it was destroyed in a gas explosion that claimed 49 lives. After a quick reconstruction, the facade was changed to tinted glass. In 2017, the building was demolished, and in 2019, a new Rotunda was opened, designed by the Gowin & Siuta studio. The new version retains its original shape, houses a bank branch and a café, and in front of it, a green patio was created with a plaque commemorating the victims of the disaster.
