Frankfurt, Gallus: The Domus Vivendi Group is developing around
450
apartments under the name “Gallus Green Gardens – G³”
Königstein im Taunus, 24.07.2015
The Domus Vivendi Group is building around 450 apartments in Frankfurt’s Gallus
district. The 24,000 sq m of living space houses a combination of compact, social,
micro- and conventional apartments. There is also a children’s nursery with a large
outdoor area. The real estate developer hopes that the various types of apartments
available will add to the vibrant development of the neighbourhood. The Domus
Vivendi Group is developing the building ensemble to the south of the Adlerwerke
factory together with Mercurius Real Estate AG from Frankfurt.
The construction project focuses on a type of housing that has been very rare until
now: lots of rooms in a small space. “Compact living” is predominantly aimed at
couples and young families. “It is very hard for these groups of tenants to find
affordable homes with a suitable number of rooms in the city centre”, explains Atilia
Özkan, chairperson of Mercurius Real Estate. “We want to provide affordable
apartments tailored precisely to these tenants.”
The ground-breaking ceremony for the almost 13,000 sq m plot is due to take place
next year. The apartments in Weilburger Straße should be ready for occupation by
the end of 2017. The 100-million-euro project has been given its name for a reason:
a roof garden will span across the top of the building and will be accessible to all
residents. “Frankfurt does not yet have a residential building with a roof garden of
this size”, explains Thomas Oellig, managing director of Domus Vivendi.
The up-and-coming Gallus district, with its many new restaurants, cultural attractions
known across the city and green spaces is distinguished by its central location. It is
also an important media location: Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Frankfurter Neue
Presse, the Deutsche Fachverlag and the Frankfurter Societätsverlag are all based
here. “Gallus Green Gardens – G³” is just five minutes from the River Main and ten
minutes from the city centre by public transport or bike. The nearby S-Bahn station
offers two-minute connections to the main train station and ten-minute connections
to Eschborn.
