New office building Maco 1927: Cologne's architecture will be reinvented sustainably!

Machabäerstraße 19-27, 50668 Köln, Deutschland - The construction of the new office building "Maco 1927" near the Cologne main station is progressing. According to ksta.de , the former building has already been gutted and the facade has been removed. Project developer Art-Invest is planning a comprehensive renovation and expansion of the area by the end of June 2026. The name "Maco 1927", which refers to the original year of construction, refers to the address Machabeanstrasse 19-27/corner Turiner Straße.

The construction site is located on a busy road, about 250 meters from the main train station. The building was originally badly damaged in the Second World War and then rebuilt in 1949. A general renovation took place in 1974. The general local health insurance (AOK), which sold the building to Art-Invest in 2022/2023, owned the building for decades.

sustainable planning and modern use

Art-Invest pursues a sustainable construction concept when developing the office building. In addition to the renovation, supplementary construction in wood is planned. The use of the newly designed building includes inner -city jobs and gastronomy, which is intended to increase the quality of life in the Cologne city center. When planning, attention is also paid to mobility. Over 150 parking spaces with digital parking space management are planned.

The special equipment features include e-bike charging stations and weather-protected storage areas. Cyclists should also benefit from rental bikes and a workshop for smaller repairs. The central location of the project, just ten minutes on foot from the main train station, offers ideal connections to local and long-distance traffic. A stop "Ebertplatz" for lines 12 and 15 is only 500 meters away.

urban development and quality of life

The “Maco 1927” project is part of a broader urban development in Cologne. In the city there are several new construction projects that offer modern living solutions and innovative work areas and at the same time focus on sustainability. For example, in Clouth-quarter 88 modern residential units and commercial space in innovative architecture are planned. The ‘Viva Agrippina’ project, which provides high -quality apartments by 2025, as well as Messecity Cologne with office buildings and retail areas, are also examples of this development.

Overall, these new construction projects contribute to improving the quality of life and the economic strength of the city. The combination of historical preservation and modern architecture will make the districts forward -looking and strengthen Cologne as a business location.
