history

founding

Main office of the WBG "Aufbau" Gera eG, Goethestrasse 6 in Gera
The student residence at Camburger Straße 95 in Jena was completed in March 2013.

On December 10, 1953, the government of the GDR passed an ordinance on the establishment of workers' housing cooperatives. This cleared the way for the establishment of the cooperative on August 29, 1956. At that time the cooperative was called AWG "EKM" Gera and had 34 founding members. The management took place on a voluntary basis. For the most part in their free time and on the weekends, the first members did their own work. Thanks to this effort, young families were able to move into the first apartments on Wiesestrasse in 1958.

1960s

On January 1, 1960, the cooperative received its first full-time board member. A year later, the first office was opened as a contact point for members and interested parties in the street of peace. The number of members increased steadily, so that further apartments could be built between 1959 and 1963. Cooperative apartments were in demand because the standard was very high for the time. All apartments had a kitchen and bathroom with a window, tiled kitchens and bathrooms were not uncommon.

1970s

The GDR's housing construction program was launched in the 1970s. The construction boom also started in Gera. The Lusan residential area has been developed. Thanks to influential sponsoring companies such as B. VEB Carl Zeiss Jena, the cooperative was now given preference to residential properties, so that the previously low housing stock increased to 3,650 apartments within a few years.

1980s

The construction boom continued in the early 1980s. Particular attention was paid to families with several children. Apartments with up to three children's rooms and a living space of around 100 square meters were created. By the end of 1989 the cooperative's housing stock increased to 4,251 apartments. A second full-time member of the board helped to direct the cooperative.

The turning point and the 1990s

In 1991 Greizer Straße was handed over to the cooperative. This was the last block of flats according to the old GDR standards. In several negotiations with the property developer, a subsequent upgrade of the apartments was e.g. B. achieved by tiled bathrooms. In addition, a renovation and modernization program of the cooperative began. B. all furnace heaters were replaced by modern heaters.

2000s

As part of the Eiselstrasse project, a combination of demolition, dismantling and modernization was used to create a residential complex, for which the cooperatives won the 2003 Innovation Prize from the Association of the Thuringian Housing Industry and the 2003 Builder Prize from GdW Bundesverband Deutscher Wohnungsbund Immobilienunternehmen V. received. Due to high demand, the cooperative shortly afterwards built another residential complex of a similar type in Pößnecker Strasse 1–26 and Zeulenrodaer Strasse 27–35 in Lusan. In 2008, the renovation of an old school building that had been acquired resulted in a senior citizens' home with a park in Tinz.

From 2010

The cooperative built exclusive low-energy houses and inexpensive family apartments. Since Gera shows a decrease from 135,000 inhabitants (1988) to 95,000 inhabitants (2013), residential buildings were demolished. At the same time, new construction and the acquisition of vacant properties in interesting locations were continued. In 2011, for example, the cooperative received the GdW's 2012 German Building Owner Award for the Petrichstrasse residential park. In 2013, the cooperative acquired a piece of land in Jena on which a student housing complex was being built.
