Bergisch Gladbach Transforms Zanders Area into Modern City Quarter
Bergisch Gladbach is set to transform the Zanders area into a modern city quarter. The city plans to establish an energy company, Energie GL GmbH, with Belkaw to manage the non-fossil energy supply. This involves demolishing several buildings and exposing a stream, with potential implications for the city's circular economy goals.
The redevelopment begins with the demolition of ancillary buildings around the Kalandersaal, the sorting hall building, and the warehouse high-rise at an estimated cost of 7.4 million euros. Additionally, the former joinery on the Mainstreet will be demolished due to hazardous substance contamination.
The exposed stream will be led from north to southeast across the site, becoming a prominent feature of the new city quarter. The city's commitment to a climate-friendly circular economy may be impacted by the demolitions, but the establishment of Energie GL GmbH aims to offset this by providing a non-carbon-neutral energy supply for the area.
