Description

Essentials about the Hafencity in brief

Hamburg’s newest district is an absolute must-see for architecture fans. The Hafencity is currently the largest inner-city urban development project in Europe. Since 2001, thousands of new apartments, business units, a new subway line, universities, museums and other buildings and facilities have been built on an area of more than 150 hectares between the city center in the north and the Port of Hamburg in the south.

The Hafencity’s flair

The many canals and harbor basins in and around Hafencity give the district a very special maritime flair. While Hafencity was still a relatively artificial and inanimate district at the beginning of its development, many stores and companies have now moved in and contributed to a noticeable revival of the district. The development of Hafencity is to be completed by around 2030.
