The Manhattan Estate in Wrocław is a residential and commercial complex located at Grunwaldzki Square (pl. Grunwaldzki 4–20) and 15 Maria Skłodowska-Curie Street. The development consists of six residential buildings and three commercial pavilions. Designed between 1967 and 1970 by architect Jadwiga Grabowska-Hawrylak, the estate was constructed between 1970 and 1973 by the Wrocław General Construction Enterprise. The residential buildings were completed and opened for use between 1976 and 1978. Locally, the complex is often referred to as Wrocław's Manhattan, Bunkrowce (Bunkers), or Sedesowce (Toilet Bowls) due to its distinctive architectural style.
