The project involved the renovation and adaptation of retail spaces, restaurant expansion, roof works, office tenant improvements, apartment renovation, and coordination within an active listed building environment.
The measures included the renovation and adaptation of various retail spaces and the restructuring of the arcade. The restaurant space in the basement was expanded by approx. 2,000 m², including the creation of a ceiling opening with a diameter of approx. 20 m, along with the installation of stairs and an elevator.
Additional works included the renovation of various roof areas, relocation of a ball fountain into the public space, tenant improvements to office space, and renovation of apartments.
All measures were carried out during ongoing operation of the passage. Public traffic had to be considered throughout the project.
The property included a listed building context, a hotel within the building complex, and various conflicts of interest. The project required a careful balance between modern commercial requirements and the existing character of the building.
The role included project management on behalf of asset management and management of the planning and execution teams. This included architects, building services engineering, and fire protection.
The planned retail spaces were converted, office space and apartments were occupied, and the restaurant area opened. The project successfully brought new commercial use into an active listed mixed-use property while maintaining ongoing operation of the passage.
