Aarhus Docklands (Danish: Aarhus Ø) is a new neighbourhood and construction project in Aarhus, Denmark.

Beginning in 2007, the Aarhus Dockland is currently a large construction site with many buildings already built as of 2014 and in coming years the project will convert the area and the former container port, Nordhavn (lit.: North Docks) to a whole new residential, educational and commercial area, consisting of several high rise buildings of modern architectural designs, such as:

One of the biggest projects is the 142 meter tall Light House building, future tallest building in Denmark. Isbjerget (The Iceberg) won the 2013 MIPIM Awards.

Fully developed, the new neighbourhood will sustain 7.000 residents and 12.000 jobs in an area equalling the size of Trøjborg. Aarhus Docklands offers a view of the Aarhus Bay and there is just a short distance to the inner city.[1]
