In the center of Munich, cars are supposed to give way - and disappear under the surface: this is what the plans look like

Munich grows and grows. Corona will hardly change that. The number of cars is also increasing: 852,263 cars were last registered. A project in the center is intended to provide relief.


Munich grows and grows.

Corona will hardly change that.

The number of cars is also increasing: 852,263 cars were last registered.

A project in the center is intended to provide relief.

  • Interesting

    renovation

    projects are pending in

    Munich's

    Altstadt / Lehel

    center in

    2021.

  • The

    reduction

    of heavily frequented

    car traffic

    is

    an important point

    .

  • In Munich *,

    vehicles are to

    increasingly disappear from the surface - and the

    quality of life

    increases.

Munich - A low point should also be the greatest

chance for positive change

.

The situation in Altstadt-Lehel can be viewed similarly with a view to 2021.

While in the

Corona year 2020 *

the mood sank in the cellar of many restaurateurs and retailers in the otherwise loud and suddenly empty city center, the district committee (BA 1) was already arguing again about

money, parking spaces and green spaces

and under the surface simply continued to build.

Munich: A modern underground car park with plenty of parking space is being built in the Altstadt / Lehel district

The old has to go so that the new comes: the

Fina parking garage will be

demolished

at the beginning of the year

.

It has to give way for the

new Hilde complex

(based on the design by Hild und K Architects), the project on Hildegardstrasse.

Together with the Munich real estate developer Wöhr + Bauer, the Hotel Mandarin Oriental wants to expand its location here, among other things.

Two buildings are to be built on around 13,000 square meters of floor space above and below ground, which, according to the developers, will create a high-quality mix of living, lifestyle and work.

One of the buildings is to be connected to the existing hotel by an underground tunnel.

51 new guest rooms, 800 square meters of retail space and eight of the 19 exclusive penthouses of the Residences at Mandarin Oriental brand are planned there.

A replacement for the parking spaces in the old multi-storey car park was created

underground

on Altstadtring: the

underground car park on Thomas-Wimmer-Ring

, also called Tom, is 140 meters long and more than 30 meters wide.

It offers

parking spaces for 520 cars

on three levels

as well as a pedestrian underpass with space for 200 bicycle boxes.

Up to eight electric cars can be charged in the underground car park.

After two years of construction, it will open in spring.

Munich center: Cars should increasingly disappear from the surface

At the same time, the

Altstadt-Radlring

is also being renovated.

The new garage also serves the

parking space concept car-free old town of

the state capital Munich.

The cars should disappear from the surface.

This happens, for example, when the valley is being rebuilt: in order

to curb

the

traffic chaos

and

improve the quality of

stay for pedestrians, cyclists and local public transport, parking spaces are being removed here.

In the long term, further measures such as greening should be considered in coordination with the residents.

The area between Fürstenfelder Strasse and Färbergraben, Georg-Kronawitter-Platz, is also to be reorganized.

The multi-storey car park at Färbergraben and the former post office opposite are to be demolished and replaced by

three new buildings

designed by star architect Norman Forster's London office.

Munich is facing a traffic collapse.

A fee for city center journeys should help against the traffic problem.

What it should cost and who has to pay.
