In striking contrast to the surrounding listed typical old Berlin buildings, such as the Kalkscheune, a new building with a distinctive appearance and a consistent design concept was constructed between 2008 and 2012, from the louvered façade to the stairwells and passenger elevators through to the interiors of the residential units.
