Initial situation
Initial situation
The central and historically significant Luisenplatz in the heart of Potsdam is used as a parking area for cars. In preparation for the Federal Horticultural Show, the city is looking for a concept that provides a smart solution to the parking issue and makes the quality of the square visible again.
Concept
Concept
An underground multi-storey car park is intended to create open space at the surface. At the same time, the entrance and exit ramps can be discreetly integrated into the historic sightlines.
Result
Unobstructed view of the Brandenburg Gate. A fountain basin with a jet of water once again adorns the centre of the square. A perspective that could already be enjoyed in the historic garden landscape of 1855. The new quality of stay at Luisenplatz delights people throughout the region. And the underground car park has also received widespread recognition well beyond professional circles for its user-friendliness and design language—as demonstrated by its award in the ADAC car park test.
The best car park is in Potsdam. Bright, clear and affordable. This is what motorists want from a car park. It is available, say the ADAC testers, and point to Potsdam.
