Complete area of north-south connection between the train station and the quarter square.
Planning 2019

The entire complex is being developed on the basis of the existing property, which was designed for industry. The configuration of the large new buildings creates two precisely defined outdoor spaces: a commercial area and a residential plaza. The north-south connection between the station and the neighbourhood square lies at the intersection between the two. The buildings have a meticulously configured structure reminiscent of an assembly of prefabricated elements. The 237 housing units, meanwhile, take a number of forms – lofts and serviced apartments in the existing complex, family homes and three-storey townhouses in the new buildings – all featuring a simple design.
