| The Circle at Zurich Airport  Unique Flughafen Zürich AG is launching the development of a new major project at Zurich Airport. A high-quality building development for services with a utilisable area of around 200,000m² is planned within walking distance of the terminal. It is called "The Circle at Zurich Airport". Over the next few years, Unique Flughafen Zürich AG will be developing a real-estate project at the foot of the Butzenbüel hill. The airport operator owns land reserves there with a developable, crescent-shaped area of 37,000 m² and a utilisable area of around 200,000 m² in compliance with zoning requirements.The name "The Circle at Zurich Airport" refers on the one hand to the circle formed by the circular road running around the hill and on the other hand to premium utilisation. The large green space on the Butzenbüel itself will be retained and contributes further to the attractiveness of the development. Unique Flughafen Zürich AG, in collaboration with the town of Kloten and the Canton of Zurich, intends to connect the development as closely as possible to the surrounding area of the town of Kloten. An investment of around one billion Swiss francs is planned for the project over the next few years. Unique Flughafen Zürich AG will plan, coordinate and allocate all the development and implementation tasks itself. A three-stage public architecture bid will be launched on 27 February 2009, and the winner will be announced in February 2010. Construction is scheduled to begin around 2012. write your comments about the article :: © 2009 Construction News :: home page |
