On 5 January 2016, the building permit was issued for the HORIZON project developed by die developer Projektentwicklung GmbH on the plot at the corner of Johannstraße/Roßstraße. The project is a new build of an office and administration building with 16 full floors and two basements. In February, the main contractor Dreßler Bau GmbH started with the construction of the foundation/foundation slab for the future high-rise building.
The project developed by AC-Liegenschaften/HKS GmbH was completed by Goldbeck West in only 15 months and was handed over to the German Aerospace Center (DLR) on time. This state-of-the-art and sustainable building comprises approx. 11,000 m² of office and conference space as well as a two-level underground car park and is supplied with most of its energy by its own geothermal system. IQ consulted the investor on all technical matters and was also commissioned with the construction controlling.
