Activate screen reader support

Modern apartments, office workplaces, and hotels in close proximity to restaurants, shopping centers, and recreational activities – the future belongs to mixed-use concepts. The planning of urban neighborhoods is one that requires expertise and know-how. Our experience and expertise in the realization of complex large-scale projects gives us everything we need to realize such projects. Our forward-looking neighborhood development projects combine living, working, and shopping spaces, as well as recreational activities, in a unique way that creates lively urban centers.

TIDE

PIONEERING MIXED-USE BUILDING ENSEMBLE IN HAFENCITY HAMBURG

In "TIDE" neighborhood in eastern HafenCity in Hamburg, we are developing a new, innovative mixed-use building ensemble in cooperation with Harmonia Immobilien, the Digital Art Museum and Studierendenwerk Hamburg on construction sites 113 to 116. Key components of the building ensemble are around 600 attractive rental and owner-occupied apartments in an exceptional location, an international, publicly subsidized student dormitory with a further 260 or so apartments at affordable rents, a daycare center, and complementary commercial and restaurant space. The highlight and attraction of the mixed-use project is the Digital Art Museum. This will be the largest museum for digital art in Europe, where visitors can experience digitally designed objects and installations by the international artist collective "teamLab.

The project is being built on a site area of around 15,000 m² and with a total gross floor area of around 85,000 m². The total investment volume amounts to around 600 million euros.

Milaneo:

A lively neighbourhood in the vertical dimension

With Milaneo in Stuttgart, we have created, together with STRABAG Real Estate, a concept unique in Germany in the middle of the Europaviertel. Three separate buildings form a lively urban quarter with lively squares and alleys and a balanced mix of retail and gastronomic offerings, inner city living, offices, and a hotel. Together with the new municipal library on Mailänder Platz, Milaneo forms the heart of the new quarter on the site of the former freight yard. Mailänder Platz completes the ensemble with green spaces, outdoor restaurants, and a body of water.

The Mitte Altona:

A holistic mixed-use nieghbourhood

Together with our partners, we have developed “Mitte Altona”, which is comprised of 1,600 apartments on a former railway site in Hamburg. After HafenCity, Mitte Altona is the second largest urban development project in Hamburg. In addition to residential buildings with subsidized and rental apartments, as well as condominiums, the new district includes a park, local squares, day-care centers, and a school. “Mitte Altona” has purposefully less vehicle traffic and takes into account the concept of inclusion.

Dr. Andreas Dressel

„With Mitte Altona, Hamburg, cooperation with the ECE, has received a new, livable urban quarter that offers people of all origins and classes an affordable home and, as a showcase project, meets the needs of a diverse and modern urban society.“
