New Construction at the MACH Cooking Complex

The Koch site is well known to many Zurich residents. For years, it has been the subject of public debate and has made numerous headlines. Now, this long-cherished vision is becoming a reality: Nearly 400 apartments and a modern commercial building are being constructed on the approximately 30,000-square-meter site.

For Senn Construction AG, we handle tasks related to the overall coordination of the construction process and serve as the point of contact with contractors for the commercial building project.

The commercial building offers flexible rental space with ceiling heights of over six meters. Thanks to an optional mezzanine level, the usable floor area can be nearly doubled. The offering is complemented by communal spaces and a new city park, which is being developed by Grün Stadt Zürich. This will create a place for exchange, collaboration, and new forms of urban coexistence.

Sustainability plays a central role in this project. The exterior facade will be greened, loggias will be planted with climbing plants and watered with collected rainwater. Among other things, the project will utilize recycled wood-frame structures, low-carbon concrete, and a rooftop solar array. The project impressively demonstrates how forward-thinking urban construction is possible when the will is there.
