Construction commencement for the new quarters at Wilhelm-Leuschner-Platz begin

Frankfurt, Germany - Construction work has commenced on a significant new quarter in the heart of the city, marking a milestone in the urban development of the region. The Leibniz Institute for Regional Studies and the Global Hub research building will be the first structures to be built, with the first sod being turned on the site this Friday.

The new quarter, which is expected to last for 12 to 15 years, will encompass various structures, including apartments, green spaces, and a market hall. The Leibniz Institute and the Global Hub research building are anticipated to be the first of many additions to the quarter, with the Faculty of Law and the Forum of Law planned for future development.

Mayor Burkhard Jung and Saxony's Minister of Science, Sebastian Gemkow, will join in the event to mark the beginning of this ambitious project. The quarter is part of a broader urban development strategy aimed at integrating research, education, residential, and public amenities in Frankfurt.

The Leibniz Institute for Regional Studies and the Global Hub research building are designed to foster interdisciplinary and international research communities, while the Forum of Law is envisioned as a multifunctional public and academic space. The market hall is intended to serve as a commercial and social hub offering local food and goods, and the green spaces are designed to enhance environmental quality and social interaction.

While specific timeline details such as start and completion dates, phased construction schedules, or official planning documents are not readily available, consulting Frankfurt city planning resources, official development authority announcements, or institutional press releases of the Leibniz Institute and the University of Frankfurt would provide more precise and up-to-date information.

This new quarter is set to transform Wilhelm-Leuschner-Platz into a vibrant and dynamic urban area, further cementing Frankfurt's position as a hub for innovation, education, and culture. As construction progresses, the city eagerly awaits the completion of this exciting project.
