Tucherpark in the Eisbach district is entering a new development phase. Today, the committee for urban planning and building regulations in Munich presented for the first time the current master plan as the basis for the development and green plan of city planning councillor Elisabeth Merk. It was developed as part of a so-called cooperative process of the investors Commerz Real, their real estate funds hausInvest and Hines Immobilien with representatives of the city, the competent authorities and parliamentary committees, architects, city planners, monument protectors, environmental associations and citizens of Munich.

“With the master plan, we now have an overall concept for a future-oriented city district that will set international standards,” praises Ina Laux, architect and urban planner and chair of the project advisory board for the Tucherpark. “This not only concerns the careful handling of the architectural heritage, but also its aesthetic and ecological development.” 

These enable a unique living and working environment that connects urbanity and nature, thus creating added value for the city and its citizens." In addition to modern offices, apartments, catering and cultural as well as sports and health services are planned. Sustainable energy concepts that make use of solar and hydropower as well as the waste heat from the existing data centre and rainwater are intended to enable climate-neutral building operation throughout the district. Investors can therefore imagine their own hydropower plant on the Eisbach river. “That would be an absolute novelty in Germany,” says Schüttauf.
