Planning of a mixed-use urban building block — N7, 68161 Mannheim, Germany — 29,000 m² — 2025 — Diringer & Scheidel Städtebau GmbH
Inner city transformation
The modernization of former Galeria Kaufhof in downtown Mannheim, and this involved adding further stories to the building, is an outstanding example of downtown transformation and sustainable re-densification: While the lower floors are being converted to ensure maximum flexibility of the office and retail spaces, the second to the sixth floors will offer new, urban housing in timber hybrid construction.
