Lichtblick residential complex

In the Sanderau district of Würzburg, a modern residential complex with 153 apartments has been built on the site of the former Bürgerspital residential home. The modern, car-free quarter marks the southern entrance to the city and is located directly at the streetcar terminus.

The complex consists of four buildings with underground parking. Itincludes a striking residential tower around 50 meters high with 16 floors, as well as three additional buildings, each with five floors. A total of 153 apartments have been created, 56 of which are subsidized housing. The apartments are spread over around 11,420 m² of living space with flexible floor plans.

The residential offering is complemented by a daycare center and a bakery on the first floor. The buildings are embedded in a park-like green area,to increase the quality of life for all generations in the interior of the block. Sustainable elements such as a photovoltaic system on one of the roofs and a biodiversity roof, which serves as a habitat for wild bees, beetles and butterflies, underline the ecological aspirations of the project.

With this project, Ed. Züblin AG was the first company to receive an award from the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB) for the sustainable construction site.
