Construction begins for new quarters at Wilhelm-Leuschner-Platz
The city of Frankfurt is set to undergo another phase of urban transformation with the development of a new quarter on Wilhelm-Leuschner-Platz. This significant location has been a focal point in Frankfurt's ongoing urban development discourse for quite some time.
The new quarter is expected to include a mix of commercial, residential, and public amenities, following the city's trend of integrating high-rise buildings and modern quarters, as seen in areas like the Europaviertel or Frankfurt’s banking district.
Key buildings planned for the quarter include the Faculty of Law and the Forum of Law, the Global Hub research building, and a market hall. The Leibniz Institute for Regional Research will be the first building to be constructed, followed by the Global Hub research building.
The quarter will also feature green spaces and apartments, ensuring a balance between modern development and environmental considerations.
The construction work for the new quarter is scheduled to start soon, and the project is expected to take 12 to 15 years to complete. Notable attendees at the groundbreaking ceremony, scheduled for Friday, will include Mayor Burkhard Jung and Saxony's Minister of Science, Sebastian Gemkow.
Negotiations to finalize plans are currently underway, with the timeline expected to conclude the negotiation and initial plan implementation phases around 2025. Additional facilities, such as parks, access to public transport, and community amenities, will likely be included to complement the building projects, aligning with Frankfurt’s development approach in similar urban districts.
As the development of Wilhelm-Leuschner-Platz moves forward, further details on specific key buildings or special facilities are expected to be released. For now, the general pattern of urban development in Frankfurt and the ongoing negotiations at this site provide a comprehensive outline of the planned changes.
