Highlights:Waking up a dormant living space

How does Jena's most central square regain urbanity? The city and its citizens have joined forces to find convincing answers to this question and they have developed a vision. A master plan was created and an investor competition was initiated. SRE and Müller Reimann Architects were awarded the contract for the first phase of construction, as their design best implements the stated objectives.
