In a former enamelling plant, which is listed for preservation, a retail park is planned. In addition, its link to the city centre is planned to be optimised in functional and creative terms.
For this purpose, a car park, which was anyway in need of refurbishment and which belonged to the adjacent “Osthessencenter” with a residential building complex of the 70s, had to be partly demolished and refurbished .
Only a structured presentation and mediation process, launched for 223 single owners, helped to find a satisfactory solution for all parties involved and to overcome planning activities that had been deadlocked for years.
