The project

The construction project is being realized by a consortium of four Lubeck housing companies: Grundstücks-Gesellschaft Trave, Lübecker Bauverein, Neue Lübecker Norddeutsche Baugenossenschaft, and Vereinigte Baugenossenschaften Lübeck. On the approximately 20,000 m² plot, several buildings comprising approximately 250 rental apartments and an underground parking garage with around 260 parking spaces are planned. The 2- to 4-bedroom apartments are intended to provide a new home for both families and singles, couples, and older individuals. Some of the housing units will be publicly subsidized. The energy supply for the residential complex will be provided by its own combined heat and power plant in the future. Construction work began in the autumn of 2021.

Travemunde is located at the mouth of the Trave River, which flows into the Baltic Sea, and the construction site is in close proximity to the water. Therefore, flood protection measures are essential for the project, both during construction, adapted to the respective construction progress, and after the completion of the residential complex. Another special feature: due to the different builders, there are particularly high demands on interface coordination, especially for construction logistics.

BCL is responsible for a significant portion of the construction logistics infrastructure and traffic management on this gigantic project, as well as managing containers and providing construction power and water. BCL's work began in April 2021 and is expected to be completed in April 2024.
