History

Architecture

The ensemble was built on the Reuterbrücke on Bundeskanzlerplatz on the edge of the federal quarter in Bonn-Gronau, on the site of the former Bonn Center building which was demolished in March 2017. Unlike its predecessor, it consists of three structurally unconnected buildings, one of which contains the high-rise. Before that, it took a year to clear the rubble from the explosion. The excavation pit was prepared by the end of 2018, and construction began in 2019. The foundation stone was laid on June 14, 2019. On May 5, 2021, the shell of the 18th floor of the high-rise was completed, reaching the height of the former Bonn Center in terms of floors. [3] The ensemble was completed at the end of 2022 and has since had 66,000 m2 (710,000 sq ft) of office space spread over 28 floors. [4] 40,000 m2 (431,000 sq ft) of it wasplanned to be rented by Postbank. [5] [6]

Original plans called for a lower building. However, the high-rise structure, which had already been standing for almost 50 years, meant that the permitted total height could be increased to over 100 metres. According to the latest plans, the high-rise in the New City Quarter measures 101.5 metres. [7] This makes it the third highest in the city since its completion. The planned construction costs for the entire complex were given as 67.8 million euros. [8]
