The Hellinikon Metropolitan Park (also called "the Ellinikon") is an urban development under construction in Hellinikon, Athens, Greece, on the site of the former Hellenikon International Airport.
It is to include a park as well as luxury homes, hotels, a casino, a marina, shops, and offices and will have Greece's tallest buildings reaching up to 200 metres (660 ft) in height. Construction had been scheduled to begin in 2008 and be completed by 2013, but the plans were shelved in the midst of the financial crisis. In July 2020, construction began on the Hellinikon redevelopment project. The Hellinikon Metropolitan Park and associated public spaces are being delivered in phases, with initial sections expected to open in 2026 and further works continuing thereafter. The Riviera Tower which is set to become Greece’s tallest building, is under construction and is projected to be completed in 2027. The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Athens is also under development, with opening currently anticipated in 2027.
In September 2025, it was announced that ION Group would develop global R&D and Innovation campus, across two of the neighbourhood's of the Ellinikon, for €450 million.
