The former commercial area of Leutschenbach, located on Zurich’s northern edge, is currently undergoing a transformation into a mixed-use neighborhood with a strong residential component. Along Hagenholzstrasse, the nearly 80-metre-high tower stands as a solitary landmark, with a generous park space opening up on its street-facing northern side. This open space links the new development to the green corridors, pathways and planted areas that will in future run through the district.
The publicly accessible ground floor accommodates a café, retail units and other service-oriented uses. The 26 upper floors comprise 224 rental apartments, predominantly 2.5- and 3.5-room units, primarily aimed at a younger demographic. Residents enter the building via a double-height entrance hall. With a roof terrace and shared facilities, the sixth-floor functions as a communal meeting space. The top four floors house maisonette apartments, lending an exclusive character to living at elevated heights.
