Röthelheimpark Erlangen

91052 Erlangen: On a former military site of the US Army, a district close to the city centre for approx. 5,000 residents is being developed on 136 ha. In addition to areas for Business and housing, the University of Nuremberg-Erlangen was expanded on this site. A district park linked to a nature reserve completes the mix of uses from living, working, learning and leisure. Completion: 2014

Information from the city about the construction area:
Urban planning realization competition 1996. 1st prize: architectural office A2, Fischer - Koronowski - Lautner - Roth, landscape architect Berger from Freising. Projects: At the western edge of the area, 247 apartments were realized on 6 ha within the framework of the subsidy program for inexpensive, ecological and social housing by the Supreme Bavarian Building Authority (Settlement Models Bavaria) according to a concept largely free of parking spaces (neighborhood parking garage).

The four-storey row of buildings closes off the new Röthelheimpark quarter to the Hartmannstrasse running past. Most of the 31 residential units are 2- and 3-room maisonettes - small "houses within a house". The lower maisonettes each have a small, private garden, the upper ones a roof terrace. This creates living qualities similar to those of one's own home, even in multi-storey housing. The range of apartments is supplemented by a number of 1.5 and 3-bedroom apartments.

Residential: 1070 residential units in multi-storey residential buildings and 442 residential units in dense single-family housing development
Local supply: two full-range stores, organic food stores, a drugstore, a savings bank and a hardware store
