The Hessen-Center in Frankfurt am Main is one of the five large shopping centers in the Frankfurt metropolitan area . It is located in the Bergen-Enkheim district in the east of the city.
history
The shopping center was opened in 1971 and is located in the then independent city of Bergen-Enkheim (which was incorporated in 1978), a few hundred meters from the then city limits to Frankfurt. The favorable trade tax of the then suburban community as well as the convenient location on the Frankfurter Straße arterial road used by trams (today: Borsigallee ) were important factors in choosing the location. The city of Bergen-Enkheim invested the proceeds from the sale of the previously community-owned property in the construction of the town hall in Bergen and a municipal swimming pool.
The center was expanded from 1980 to 1981 and renovated from 1997 to 1998. In 2008 the Hessen-Center was expanded by a few hundred square meters. The floor plan corresponds to the typical configuration of a three-storey, roofed shopping center with branches from Kaufhof , C&A , Hennes & Mauritz and Peek & Cloppenburg, among others .
Importance in the region
The Hessen-Center is the smallest of the five large Frankfurt shopping centers with 36,000 m² of retail space , 1,000 employees, 115 shops and a catchment area of 1,325,107 residents. The opening of the center had far-reaching consequences, especially for retail in the directly neighboring, historically grown sub-centers of Fechenheim , Bornheim ( Berger Straße ) and Dörnigheim as well as for the center of the local community itself, the old town of Bergen and above all of Enkheim. The city center of Hanau still suffers measurably from the competition from the shopping center.
The Hessen-Center belongs to the Hamburg company ECE .
Transport links
The Hessen-Center since 1992 by the metro -line U7 via Ostend and since December 2008 with the line U4 about Bornheim with the Frankfurt city connected. In addition, it is connected to the surrounding districts and other places ( Bad Vilbel , Maintal , Offenbach, Hanau ) in the region by various bus routes . The eastern part of the federal highway 66 interrupted in Frankfurt ends directly next to the shopping center.
Renovation work 2018–2020
The parking deck has been completely rebuilt since August 2018. The completion of the entire renovation work is planned by October 2020.
