The traditional turning of the sod ceremony for the construction of the City Gate Nord took place in early November. By mid 2018, the Vodafone employees in Hannover will be able to move into their new office building on Vahrenwalder Straße. The modern DGNB Gold certified building will have six floors and feature an elegant clinker brick façade. The ground floor will accommodate a Vodafone shop as well as a staff restaurant that will also be open to the public. The building will be very well connected to public transport and will also have its own multi-storey car park that will be erected directly opposite.

The foundation stone for the new multi-storey car park of the Cologne trade fair was laid at a ceremony on 8 September 2016. Over the coming sixteen months, Deutsche Industrie- und Parkhausbau GmbH will create parking space for approximately 3,200 vehicles on the site. The new car park building will blend in nicely with the urban development context between the inner-city motorway and the Zoo Bridge and will be easily identifiable by its prominent scales-like façade. IQ Real Estate has been commissioned to act as project manager.
