The Project

Oberbillwerder is located in the Bergedorf district, approximately 16 minutes from Hamburg Central Station. It is not only Hamburg’s second-largest urban development project, but it will also be the Hanseatic city’s 105th district. As a model Active City district, sports, exercise, and health will play a central role here. The goal is to create vibrant neighborhoods with diverse offerings for housing, work, education, culture, and leisure. 6,000 to 7,000 residential units are planned on 118 hectares. In addition, there will be 4,000 to 5,000 jobs, an education and community center, two elementary schools, at least 14 daycare centers, and just as many social facilities. Several Mobility Hubs, approximately 28 hectares of public green and open spaces with numerous playgrounds, as well as a large activity park and a swimming pool – that is the new Oberbillwerder district at a glance.

Our goal is to develop a piece of the city with all the trimmings, where distances are short and people with diverse lifestyles can find a home.
