Porsche Design Tower
Groß & Partner Acquires Property and Project Development in Europaviertel from P+B Group
Frankfurt am Main, 11.09.2020
The Frankfurt-based project development company, Groß & Partner, acquired the property Europaallee 65-67 including the ready-for-building high-rise project development from P+B Group from Sankt Augustin near Bonn. Both parties have agreed not to disclose the purchase price.
On this property, P+B Group developed the so-called Porsche Design Tower, a high-rise building licensed by Porsche, to building maturity. The listed water tower located on the adjacent park property will be preserved according to planning.
For Groß & Partner, the project at Europaallee 65-67 is already the second project in the Europaviertel. Most recently, Groß & Partner realised the administrative headquarters of the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians of Hesse (KVH), which is also located at Europaallee and thus diagonally opposite of the Porsche Design Tower property. At Güterplatz in the adjacent Gallusviertel, Groß & Partner currently builds the multi-storey building THE SPIN, a hotel and office building with a height of approx. 128 metres.
With the acquisition of the project, Groß & Partner expands its high-rise project portfolio with an attractive investment in a popular city centre location. Nikolaus Bieber and Jens Hausmann, managing directors at Groß & Partner, emphasise: "In view of the successful development of the entire Europaviertel, we see great potential for the last available property located directly at the new underground station and vis-à-vis of the future Fair Entrance South."
Commenting on the successful transaction, Gerd Hebebrand, Managing Partner and CEO of P+B Group said: "In recent years, we developed the tower jointly with Porsche Design Group with a high degree of professionalism and passion until it was ready for construction. Despite the market situation that is shaped by the current pandemic, we have now succeeded in marketing the project planning including the property quickly. This proves that we developed a TOP product in a prime location in the heart of the Main metropolis." Even after the exit, P+B Group has many other projects and is still on track of dynamic growth. In the current market situation, P+B Group wants to get more involved in the development of housing for broader population strata. For this purpose, the project developer and property developer has already secured initial development areas.
