The structure of Frankfurt’s city centre is changing. Many projects are in the starting blocks to ensure that the city centre remains an attractive space with a high quality of stay in the future. There are already concrete plans: on the Zeil, the city of Frankfurt is planning an investment of around €30 million to develop and revitalise the pure shopping mile into a mixed-use district. The site of the former Karstadt building is to be turned into a multi-use property with a new building – offering space for retail, hotel, office and residential use. The former P&C building is also facing a possible transformation: with a school, a hotel, commercial and office space.

With the projects “High Lines” and “The Edge” in Stiftstraße, four high-rise buildings for offices, retail and housing are planned, as well as another residential tower. There are also plans for a mixed-use neighbourhood on Brönnerstrasse. The retail and office location “Bonwit & Bär” on Stiftstrasse/Brönnerstrasse will also benefit from the expected increase in visitor frequency as a result of the new mix of offerings.
