Michael Zahn, CEO of Deutsche Wohnen SE: "Munich is one of the most attractive and liveable cities in Europe. So, I am delighted that, with Hofmark by the Olympic Park, we are successfully realising our first new-build project in this city. With this and other projects in Munich, we would like to make our contribution to creating urgently needed housing. As a company experienced in the management and maintenance of housing in German metropolitan regions, we are guided by the idea of building estates that remain attractive decades from now and that meet the requirements of both the residents and the people who live nearby."

David Christmann, Managing Director of Isaria Projektentwicklungs GmbH, adds: "We are converting a former industrial site and building a mixed-use estate in the centre of Munich. Particularly interesting is the option of employee flats. The idea is that renters of office space can offer their employees housing in a city in which it is difficult to find a new flat."

All of the 215 flats under construction will be for rent. Of these, 43 will be subsidised in accordance with the guidelines for socially fair land use in the city of Munich, whilst a further 17 flats will be included in the "Munich model" programme and reserved for low-income households. The flats have between 1.5 and 4 rooms and range in size from 24 to 128 square metres. The residential buildings have generously proportioned roof terraces that are accessible to all the residents. In addition, there are two basement garages.

The office space comprises 18,200 square metres and is sufficient for approximately 1,000 workers. The layout of the offices can be configured efficiently and flexibly, which ensures that this space can be used for many years to come. In addition, gastronomy and fitness studios will increase the appeal of these offices for the companies that are tenants there.

Over 2,000 square metres in the centre of the estate will be set aside for green spaces that are publicly accessible and will create a campus atmosphere. There will also be a kindergarten with a total of 136 places.

It is planned that the entire estate with a total of seven residential buildings and three commercially used buildings should be completed by the beginning of 2023. Building work on the site began in 2020. Of the five construction plots, construction work on the first has now been completed. The work on construction plot 5 will be completed this year, with work on the remaining three construction plots being completed in 2023.

With its commitment to new builds in cities, Deutsche Wohnen is responding to the high demand for housing. Together with its strategic partner QUARTERBACK Immobilien AG, it will build around 18,000 flats over the coming years, particularly in the metropolitan regions of Berlin, Dresden/Leipzig, Munich and Stuttgart. Approximately 9,000 of these flats will remain in the holdings of Deutsche Wohnen and represent an investment of EUR 4.3 billion in total. Currently, the company manages around 1,000 flats in Bavaria, of which 500 are in Munich.
