The Frankfurter Bogen is a 72 hectare settlement on the eastern edge of the Frankfurt district of Preungesheim . It has been under construction in three sections since 2004 and should be completed around 2020 (status: November 2018). The settlement was given this name because it is bounded and enclosed in the north and east by an arch of the federal highway 661 . In Frankfurt arc around 5,000 people live in about 2,000 residential units upon completion.

development

The planning of the city of Frankfurt envisaged that the construction of the Frankfurter Bogen would take place in three construction phases. Multi-storey rental and owner-occupied buildings as well as single-family houses in row and individual construction were planned for residential construction. The real estate reorganization and development was completed for the first construction phase in 1999 and for the second construction phase in mid-2002. In July 2004 the procedure for the third construction phase to the south and thus for the entire project was completed. Since then, all three construction phases have been built. The first two sections have now been completed, the third construction phase still offers few reserves. However, the city of Frankfurt no longer awards land.

There is now a very good infrastructure due to the numerous shops in the Gravensteiner Arkaden as well as daycare centers and schools. This was also reflected in the price development: Compared to the first sales in the Frankfurter Bogen, there have been price increases of 50 percent and more.

designation

The Frankfurter Bogen is also known as the "apple district". Before construction began, there were gardens, allotment gardens and many orchards and apple tree meadows at this location. Numerous streets were named after apple varieties, for example Alkmenestraße , Am Borsdorfer , Renettenstraße , Gravensteiner Platz , Boskoopstraße .

Infrastructure

traffic

Tram line 18 terminates at Gravensteiner-Platz, July 2012

The Frankfurter Bogen has been connected to local public transport by bus route 63 since 2002 . There is also an underground connection via the U5 line approx. One kilometer away ( Preungesheim , Sigmund-Freud-Straße and Ronneburgstraße stations ). From March 2009, a 3.5 kilometer long tram line was built from the northern city center via Friedberger Landstrasse to Frankfurter Bogen (terminus: Gravensteiner Platz ) for better and more direct transport connections . It is served by the new tram line 18 and went into operation on December 11, 2011. With this rail connection without changing trains, passengers from the large housing estate can get directly to the city center (e.g. to Konstablerwache , 18 minutes) or to Sachsenhausen . On Fridays, Saturdays and days before public holidays, there is night traffic at 18, which starts at 1:30 and ends at 4:00. The tram starts at Gravensteiner Platz and goes to Konstablerwache and takes line 12 to Schwanheim. Some trips end in the Gutleutviertel on Heilbronner Straße

Car traffic takes Hofhausstraße (from Friedberger Landstraße B3 ), Huswertstraße (from Am Dachsberg street ) and Weilbrunnstraße (from Homburger Landstraße ) to Frankfurter Bogen. There are also two nearby motorway junctions ( Friedberger Landstrasse and Eckenheim ) to the A 661.

Youth care

Four day-care centers and a building complex with a primary school , day-care center and youth club (opened in 2007) have been realized in the Frankfurter Bogen .

There are two kindergartens on Alkmenestrasse and one each on Huswertstrasse and Gundelandstrasse

Refugee shelter

In February 2015, accommodation for refugees was opened in the Goldpeppingstrasse container housing complex. The containers, which previously housed a daycare center, have been converted accordingly. A total of up to 80 people, only singles and couples, but no children were accommodated. The facility in the Frankfurter Bogen development area was looked after by the Evangelical Association for Housing Aid.

The accommodation was planned for two years and could be extended by a maximum of one year. According to the building regulations, the last residential buildings for the Frankfurter Bogen must then be built on this property. The accommodation was vacated from mid-2018. ABG Holding has a construction contract for rental apartments for this property. A residential complex is to be built on the edge, similar to the Apfel-Carée or the Gravensteiner Arkaden with an inner courtyard.

Construction of a sports facility

The local advisory board 10 and the sports clubs have been striving for a sports facility for Preungesheim for decades. A 6.5-hectare, slightly sloping plot of land in the southeast of the new housing estate has long been planned for this purpose. According to the sports director Markus Frank, construction should actually start in 2013. In February 2013, however, only the wilderness area was cleared. In June 2014, the City of Frankfurt's municipal authorities launched the sports park after a few savings plans. The facility for 14.15 million euros will be terraced, it will have a three-field hall (2200 square meters, 200 spectator seats) with integrated changing rooms and showers, outside an artificial turf field with a running track, a natural grass field, two mini turf fields and a functional building that will also be suitable for social events. The area is framed with park-like greenery, and towards the northern residential area with a 4 meter high noise barrier plus a 2 meter protective wall. The hall was opened in front of the outdoor spaces. Construction of the then largest district sports facility in Frankfurt began in September 2014, the sports hall followed in autumn 2015; The project opened at the end of May 2017.

Gravensteiner Arkaden shopping center

In August 2011, the planning of the shopping center was decided after a competition. On the 7,300 square meter plot of land on Gravensteiner Platz, 118 apartments on four floors (17,820 square meters), a supermarket with 3068 square meters (tegut), a further 2120 square meters for other retail or a bank branch, 300 square meters for gastronomy and 760 square meters of office space will be created. At the beginning of 2013, the site was cleared of wild growth and leveled. In May 2014, subsoil investigations and excavation work began, and the foundations were laid in September 2014, so that the long-awaited "Gravensteiner Arkaden" could be completed in spring 2016. In the meantime, shops in the Gravensteiner Arkaden have opened, including a supermarket, a drugstore, an ice cream parlor, a bakery and a restaurant. In the same building complex there are other small shops such as a hairdresser, a cosmetic studio and a physiotherapy practice.

market

There is a weekly market at Gravensteiner Platz on Fridays. In addition to shopping opportunities, it also offers stands with drinks and food.

Senior pen

The Wiesenhüttenstift , a residential and nursing home for the elderly, was relocated from the Frankfurt Nordend to Gravensteiner-Platz in 2006 . The construction of the larger shopping center also planned there could only begin in mid-2014 due to the lack of an investor. In addition, however, there have been a few shops since mid-2013, integrated into a large office and residential complex. Since spring 2009 there has been a Preungesheim weekly market on Gravensteiner-Platz on Fridays.

Green areas, play and sports areas

Otherwise approx. 45% (32.4 hectares) of the new development area is intended for green spaces , leisure gardens as well as play and sports facilities. The green spaces - like the existing allotment gardens - should form a natural noise and exhaust gas buffer to the lower-lying federal motorway 661 around the residential areas of the Frankfurter Bogen. In addition, the northern Frankfurt green belt can be reached in a few minutes on foot or by bike through two motorway underpasses. On an area of ​​around 3.4 hectares, north of the street Am Borsdorfer and east of the Liesel-Oestreicher-Schule, a classic Hessian orchard meadow was modeled under the working name Apple Park . The facility, which was handed over in August 2012 for a cost of 750,000 euros, closed the gap on the Am Lausberg path to the west , as well as its own network of paths with a circular route and play and sports areas for children.

Further development

Further living space is to be created on the grounds of the refugee accommodation and on Booskopstrasse. Otherwise, the development of the Frankfurter Bogen is largely complete. There is hardly any free space. According to the current resolution, the city of Frankfurt is not awarding any further properties.

World record attempt

On May 6, 2017, a world record attempt was made as part of the "4th Preungesheim is (s) t" event: The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was attempted to be read out in a reading series in more than 50 languages . It was read in 53 languages, with which Preungesheim set a new world record. The world record has yet to be approved by the World Records Bureau.
