history

House martin

House martin in April 1973

Prior to the construction of King City Carrée was on the grounds of the 45-meter-high House Martin House , which in 1973 in a reinforced concrete skeleton has been as complete. The main use of the house martin was commercial office use. The prestigious building had to be cleared due to structural defects , so that after the last users moved out in the summer of 1989, it was empty for eleven years. In the course of this, house martins took over the building and began to nest there . On September 3, 2001, however, the demolition of the building by Bauart Beteiligungs GmbH & Co. Mollstrasse KG began to make way for the Königstadt-Carrée . The demolition of the prefabricated building was completed in 2002.
