With the publication of the development plan, the Quartier Am Humboldthain has reached another important milestone. This establishes the legal basis for developing around 234,000 square metres of flexibly usable gross floor area on the former AEG site in Berlin-Gesundbrunnen. With a site area of approximately 6.5 hectares, Quartier Am Humboldthain is one of the largest urban quarter developments within Berlin’s S-Bahn ring.
“Politics and administration have succeeded in advancing a high-quality urban quarter in the heart of the city through one of the fastest development plan procedures of the past 20 years. This is a major achievement for everyone involved and an important signal for Berlin as a business location,” says Lutz Keßels, Managing Director of QUARTIER AM HUMBOLDTHAIN GMBH. “Quartier Am Humboldthain will become a vibrant neighbourhood for education, research, production and culture – a future hub for innovation with short distances in the centre of the city.”
Dismantling of the existing building will begin at the end of 2025, with completion of the quarter planned by 2030.
