Munich: Construction work on the Gasteig threatens to come to a standstill – Munich

There is no investor who wants to take over the project with the cost cap of 450 million euros decided by the city council. Now the administration should re-examine all options – another quick tender is out of the question.

One could understand if Max Wagner was frustrated right now. But the managing director of Gasteig GmbH is sitting in his interim office at the interim location in Sendling on Wednesday afternoon and is determined not to let the most recent problems get you down. He says he has been working on the project for seven years; For seven years he had campaigned for the general renovation of the Gasteig in Haidhausen on the banks of the Isar. He will now continue to fight for the design developed by the Henn architectural office. “I am firmly convinced that this is the best solution for Munich, its citizens and beyond.” However, time is of the essence. “It has to move fast now. The worst thing would be if it came to a standstill.”
