In the preparatory phase, Drees & Sommer is analyzing costs, quality standards and leasing space for the financing bank in order to ensure that goals are met. The experts are also undertaking project controlling during construction.
The mall accommodates large retail areas such as a home improvement market and a supermarket as well as smaller shops and boutiques. A cinema center, food courts and leisure facilities for families and children are also planned. Highlights are the open garden areas on the roof and huge media walls that project events inside onto the external walls. The entire complex is designed as a 'city within a city'. The holistic theme world scheduled to open at the end of 2009.
Two 50-floor apartment high-rises with a total of 125,000 square meters of floor space will be added to the complex in a second phase.
