Commercial Building Europaallee

Zurich Site B. Structural engineering.

Project

Architecturally elegant and energetically outstanding - pre-certified with the Gold Label of the Swiss Society for Sustainable Real Estate Management (SGNI) - this is how the latest building at Europaallee, just nearby Zurich Main station, presents itself. Under the architectural direction of Stücheli Architects, a house for gastronomy, retail and services was realized, which does justice to its location as the prelude to the new quarter and is a model project in terms of sustainability. The project was awarded against 72 competing projects.

The following uses are accommodated on 12 floors:

• Basement floors 1–2: Parking, technical equipment, storage and waste disposal
• Ground floor: Retail areas, gastronomy, entrances
• Upper floors 1-9: Office spaces
