Hochtief Projektentwicklung has sold its Rüttenscheider Tor office project in Essen to Sal. Oppenheim. The private bank is buying the office building which has a gross floor area of around 16,500 m2 for a real estate fund, which will be offered to the bank's clients. Financial details were not disclosed.
Two well-known legal firms will be moving into those areas of the building which are already let, by the beginning of next year at latest.
The six-story Rüttenscheider Tor extends over an L-shaped lot of 4,700 m2 along Alfredstrasse and Messeallee. The complex includes an underground car park with space for more than 170 cars. Hochtief said the architecture makes reference to the building opposite, the Büropark an der Gruga, which was also realized by Hochtief Projektentwicklung and completed in 2002. Rüttenscheider Tor has been built with sustainability in mind: the rooms are climatized with a low-temperature system, using heating and cooling ducts in the ceiling. Primary energy consumption is significantly below the levels prescribed by the 2007 Energy Saving Ordinance.
