In 2020, the building was abandoned; Hochtief planned to demolish it in favor of a new company headquarters on the same site. However, the Covid pandemic and the Ukaraine war delayed the planned demolition and put the new building project on hold for the time being. The entrance portal and the entrance door secured with plywood are of course an open invitation to the street art and graffiti scene to beautify this desolate and neglected area.From time to time, however, a major cleanup takes place, and once again, there is nothing to see but dreary plywood and bare walls.","author_name":"Andrea Ranke (streetartwalks)","author_url":"https://streetartcities.com/users/51f372c8-94ee-4e71-9262-bc43e92d4dc4","thumbnail_url":"https://streetartcities.com/media/c/cb3f7293-b22b-4cb2-95d4-b436174e2f77/1024.jpg","thumbnail_width":1024,"width":480,"height":480,"html":"","cache_age":3600}
