The concept ‘A centre of our own making’ offers exemplary solutions to this problem. It establishes a framework that enables future users to adapt and ‘program’ these spaces individually. The plan is to disassemble the former sales hall in the centre and to create a new central ‘village square’ surrounded by a new residential development. The existing ensemble of buildings from different development contexts will also be joined by a new building in the rear part of the property. In addition, the entire heterogeneous ensemble is formally consolidated in a ‘city shelf’.
