The consortium of J&P Avax - ΤΕRΝΑ - AKTOR - ΙΝΤRΑΚΑΤ has been the designated winner of the competition to determine the builder of the Athens mosque, in Votanikos, Athens.
The consortium's bid of 946,000 euros with a 7% reduction was accepted by the infrastructure ministry, with the work expected to fininsh within six months of ground breaking.
Ministry officials believe works may start two months from now, as the contract has pass inspection by state auditors.

The mosque will cover 600 square meters in a plot 17,000 square meters that used to be a Hellenic Navy vehicle repair depot.
