In the heart of Cologne’s vibrant Ehrenfeld neighborhood, a new car-free residential complex is taking shape, combining modern architecture with a sustainable lifestyle. The green, vine-covered facades of the seven apartment buildings not only create an aesthetically pleasing environment but also help improve the microclimate. On 4,518 m² of land, Bauwens is constructing a total of 109 apartments for DIE WOHNKOMPANIE NRW.
A special highlight of the residential complex is the shared rooftop garden, which inspires neighborhood activities. In addition to the communal gardens, some apartments feature customizable rooftop gardens, some of which are assigned as exclusive use rights and offer residents additional private outdoor space.
For families and children, the residential complex offers a large playground. The complex is being built to the KfW 40 standard.
In addition to 65 parking spaces in the underground garage, there is a strong focus on sustainable mobility: 300 bicycle parking spaces are available to residents. This mobility concept promotes environmentally friendly travel in the urban environment.
