Project description

Reason for planning
For the area known as “Friedrich garden center” a resolution was passed in 2002 to draw up “Legal Zoning Plan no. 858 – Living to the North of Günthersburgpark”. In 2011 a resolution adopted by the City Council made the project area specified in the legal zoning plan an integral part of a preliminary study relating to the implementation of an urban development measure.

On the one hand, as part of this preliminary study the urban development concept behind the legal zoning plan was revised and the overarching objectives of the master plan adapted. For formal reasons, in 2017 the City Council resolved to exclude the planned area from the preliminary stuidy and to pursue the development and realization of the project by reintroducing the development plan process in connection with an urban development contract.

In September 2019, an urban development contract was concluded with the owners of the land in question and the project developers that defines the objectives for realizing the project on the basis of Legal Zoning Plan no. 858.
The draft legal zoning plan went on public display between March and August 2020.

The legal zoning plan was approved on March 31, 2022 by the Frankfurt City Council and included in the statutes; it came into force with its official gazetting on May 10, 2022.


Development area

The development area is bordered in the northeast by Dortelweiler Strasse and in the southeast by a residential area on Comeniusstrasse. In the south and southwest the land adjoins Günthersburgpark. The development area measures around 1.15 hectares.

Planning objectives
The legal zoning plan puts in place the conditions necessary for developing the land as attractive housing once it is no longer used as a garden center. The new development will blend in with existing buildings by taking into account roof types and the height of buildings already standing on Dortelweiler Strasse.
The new buildings to be constructed on the site of the former garden center will be kept open in terms of pathways while the west and south perimeter of the residential area will constitute a high-grade transition to it.

The southern edge of the area covered by the plan will be maintained as public parkland attached to Günthersburgpark. A children’s playground will be built here.

The housing area will be supplemented to include a set of three childcare centers – their outdoor areas will be aligned to the new build’s inner courtyard.

The legal zoning plan has also laid the foundations for creating an attractive public pathway for cyclists and pedestrians running from Dortelweiler Strasse across the area to Günthersburgpark. The planned area will be linked to the pathways in Günthersburgpark as part of the park’s expansion northwards.
