Angerhof (Munich)
The Angerhof is a building in Munich that serves as a residential building , office building , hotel with catering , service location and parking garage .
location
The property is located on Oberanger Street near Marienplatz and Viktualienmarkt between Munich's oldest St. Anna monastery and the new Jewish Center on St-Jakobs-Platz . The next stops of the U- / S-Bahn are the Munich Marienplatz station and the Sendlinger Tor underground station .
architecture
In its horizontal structure, the Angerhof combines classic uses for living, working and going out in the tradition of European townhouses. There are retail and catering facilities on the ground floor, offices on the floors above and 4,000 square meters of condominiums were created on levels five and six - with a ceiling height of three meters and roof terraces of up to 100 square meters. The architecture is reflected in the technically complex facade . The light artist Ingo Maurer installed the digitally programmed “facade glow” from energy-optimized LED lamps behind the sand-colored terracotta facade. A 1,000 square meter inner courtyard has been created for the public in the Angerhof, which leads directly into the pedestrian zone at Unteren Anger, which has also been newly created.
Construction and data
Construction began in 2005 according to the plans of the architects Otto Steidle and Johann Spengler. The topping-out ceremony took place in 2007 and the completion of the property with a floor space of approx. 38,000 square meters was in 2009. The construction costs amounted to approx. 150 million euros.
The place where the Angerhof stands today was known for a long time from the post-war period as the “urban rubbish dump”. A car park made of raw concrete and with a gas station, built after the war, blocked the development plans of city planning councilor Christiane Thalgott for a long time . Mayor Christian Ude (SPD) did not expect an urban development plan before 2037. Because that was how long the leasehold guaranteed the existence of the parking garage. When Wöhr + Bauer GmbH, through its managing director Wolfgang Roeck, made the proposal at the turn of the millennium to relocate the multi-storey car park to an underground car park in the same place, a solution was found. After the architectural competition for the Angerhof, planning for the “Boulevard Oberanger” followed from July to December 2003 - jointly by the building department, planning department, district committee (BA) and the developer of the Angerhof, Wöhr + Bauer. On February 17, 2004, the BA, chaired by Wolfgang Püschel, recommended the design by “realgrün” landscape architects. In May 2005 the city council approved the overall concept.
particularities
- Shortly after construction began, in 2006, Linde AG secured almost all of the office space for its new company headquarters as a tenant.
- The new building received a large and consistently positive response in the press. Critics especially welcomed the urban upgrading of the area. For a while, one of the penthouse apartments was considered the “most expensive apartment in Germany” and aroused great media interest.
- In the multi-storey car park of what will later be the penthouse apartments, Wöhr + Bauer GmbH implemented the 32 hectare exhibition on Munich's 850th birthday - a multimedia show about the Angerviertel.
- In the inner courtyard there is a large, stainless steel molecule sculpture by Christopher Klein . The production was carried out by the Sandmeir company in Rain am Lech . The largest element of the sculpture is over six meters in diameter.
- The newly created alley between the Jewish Center and Angerhof is illuminated by two rotating light sculptures by the New York artist Keith Sonnier in the colors red and blue.
- The artist Andrea Schmeing-Häusler sunk sound stones in the cobblestones at Angerhof , which use digital technology to make real church bells ring.
Architecture Prize
The Angerhof Munich was nominated on March 12, 2009 at the international real estate fair MIPIM in Cannes as one of only three buildings for the “MIPIM Award” 2009 in the “Business Center” category.
