Concord has officially handed over Sohel Square, a premium commercial project located on Satmasjid Road in Dhanmondi. The Concord team stood beside landowners and clients to mark a proud moment, the completion of a landmark development in one of the busiest parts of the city. This building is not just concrete and glass. It is a new address for businesses, a fresh name on the map of Dhanmondi, and a space built to hold ideas, meetings, and growth.
Sohel Square stands tall with a bold, modern design. The exterior is clean and striking. The lobby and common areas feature a hotel-quality finish. Two high-speed elevators ensure smooth vertical movement. The multi-level basement offers well-ventilated parking. At night, the building is softly illuminated with mood lighting, creating an inviting atmosphere. Everything is set for businesses and retailers to begin their next chapter in this vibrant commercial hub.
The location adds even more strength. This corner of Satmasjid Road and Road 27 stays active throughout the day. People, cars, and daily life move through it nonstop. That means visibility. That means attention. A business at Sohel Square gets seen. It gets remembered. This address delivers exactly what enterprises look for.
Inside, safety and comfort have been thoughtfully planned. The building includes a full fire detection system and 24/7 security surveillance. It uses insulated double-glazed Low-E glass, which reduces the over-reliance on air conditioning and supports green building practices. Every detail was designed to make daily work smoother and smarter.
Sohel Square was built with a purpose. From the earliest drawings to the final detail, the entire process reflects Concord’s effort to deliver a commercial space that is modern, sustainable, and ready for business. However, this handover is not the end; it is the beginning of new opportunities for the businesses that will shape their future here.

ইটভাটা শুধু বাতাসই দূষণ করছে না; মাটির উর্বরতা ধ্বংস করে দিচ্ছে, ধানের ফলন কমিয়ে দিচ্ছে, শাকসবজি, ফলমূল কমে যাচ্ছে, সর্বোপরি মানুষের শারীরিক ও মানসিক অবস্থার চরম ক্ষতি করছে। ভারত, চীন, থাইল্যান্ড, ভিয়েতনামসহ বিশ্বের বেশির ভাগ দেশে ইটভাটার ভয়াবহতা উপলব্ধি করে এরই মধ্যে সেসব বন্ধ করে দিয়ে ব্লকের দিকে হাঁটছে। বাংলাদেশেও যত দ্রুত সম্ভব ইটভাটা বন্ধ করে পরিবেশবান্ধব ব্লকের দিকে যাওয়ার তাগিদ দিয়েছেন পরিবেশবিদ, গবেষক ও বেসরকারি খাতের অংশীজনরা।

The government move to make the use of blocks mandatory in public construction will boost manufacturing of environment-friendly construction materials and encourage private businesses to invest in the sector, said the chief of a top realtor.

“It is very good starting point,” Shahriar Kamal, managing director of Concord Group of Companies, told The Daily Star in an interview recently.

The reason being, before this people could not understand how serious the government was about the switch from the environmentally harmful fire-burnt clay bricks.

Last month, the ministry of environment, forest and climate change directed state-agencies to begin the use of blocks — which are made up of sand, cement fly ash or materials other than clay — in public construction from this fiscal year.

Public agencies will have to use blocks to build and repair walls of buildings, surrounding walls, herringbone bond road and rural passages in place of bricks, which use valuable topsoil as raw material.

Lake City Concord is Bangladesh’s first gated township project constructed by RCBM (Reinforced Concrete Block Masonry) technology. This project has over 4000 apartments and all support facilities: its own school, shopping mall, mosque, gymnasium, convenience store, deep tube wells & separate office blocks. The entire project was constructed with environmentally friendly green bricks/ blocks.

All the buildings of Lake City Concord have been constructed using RCBM (Reinforced Concrete Block Masonry) technology makes buildings more earthquake-resistant than conventionally built buildings. This construction system can safely resist lateral or cyclic thrust because each wall made of these blocks is reinforced and behaves as an integrated concrete shear wall. Hence, load-bearing hollow concrete blocks are better suited for construction in earthquake-prone zones. RCBM technology was used for the first time in Bangladesh in Lake City Concord project.

Concord has launched 9 stunning new projects (Residential & Commercial) in 2022 and handed over 7 projects this year. There is no address like Concord.
