history

In April 1911 Arthur Jursch submitted the building application for a small ensemble of residential buildings on Ahornstrasse, the plans of which were probably made by the builder Hermann Barth. The construction should be carried out by the construction company Hörnig & Barth . In May 1911, the plans with the attached exemption were submitted to the Saxon Heritage Protection Association as an expert. The negative response to the Dresden-Neustadt administrative authority contained the reason: “The building in the size it is now planning would attract so much attention that flawless architecture is absolutely essential. That the ... views do not meet these requirements, at least the triangular roof platform teaches. ”The proposals of the state association led to plan changes that were approved in June 1911. Just eight days later, the completion of the building shell was announced and the request for a purchase permit was issued at the beginning of October 1911.
