Pirnaischer Platz high-rise

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pirnaischer Platz high-rise building with low-rise building, 2010

The high-rise Pirnaischer Platz ( Grunaer Straße 5) is a building ensemble consisting of the 14-storey high-rise "P 27" with a single-storey flat wing "Pirnaisches Tor". In the opinion of the GDR trade press at the time, the ensemble "with its outstanding design" formed the visual end of Wilsdruffer Strasse to the east. This group of buildings in the Pirnaische Vorstadt was important for urban planning because it represented a rounding off of the first inner-city reconstruction area. The structural group is also considered an example of the International Style , which has "only a few similar or equal equivalents" in GDR architecture.

description

2009: The writing DER SOCIALISMUS SIEGT can still be seen.

The 50 meter high apartment tower on Pirnaischer Platz was built between 1964 and 1966 by the architect Peter Sniegon and the architects' collective Herbert Löschau, Hans Kriesche and Gerhard Landgraf . Heinz Zimmermann was responsible for the interior design. The range of apartments consists of 120 one-and-a-half and 60 one-room apartments.

The building was erected in 5 megapond slab and 2 megapond steel frame construction with loggia facades. The flat wing with roof terrace was added at the end of the 1960s. It housed the restaurants Gastmahl des Meeres , Mocca-Stube and Pirnaisches Tor , and later a delicatessen shop.

On May 1, 1968, the glowing red lettering DER SOZIALISMUS SIEGT was affixed to the skyscraper , which was dismantled in 1987 without any public explanation.

In 2007 the city sold the building to the Israeli investor Segal Group for 4 million euros. The planned renovation of the residential building was delayed, so that in 2009 only a third of the apartments were inhabited due to the deficiencies. The investor began to renovate the low-rise building. In 2009, Drewag imposed a driving ban for trucks on the access road because the district heating pipe was not covered enough . The dispute between the Israeli investor and the city administration was settled in April 2010.

Current

The renovation of the residential wing, which has been announced for years, has not yet taken place. The house has been empty since 2018.

At the beginning of October 2015, strangers put the slogan THE CAPITALISM IS SEILED at the top of the building.

In 2017 it was sold to Creo 7 Dresden GmbH.

On September 27, 2017, the building supervision of the state capital Dresden issued a ban on the use of the Grunaer Strasse 5 high-rise building due to serious fire protection defects in the building to protect the tenants.

In September 2019 the saying NADDL.AND.RONNY.SIEGT! painted over the 14th floor of the house.
