In the heart of Cologne, in a prime location on Roncalliplatz in the north of the old town and virtually next door to the cathedral, a new quarter is being created where people can work, shop and live: the Laurenz Carré. Standing on the historic site of the former church of St. Laurence, this complex covering over 33,000 square metres will mark a new page in Cologne’s history. The future Laurenz Carré consists of six buildings bordering Unter Goldschmied Street, Roncalliplatz and Laurenzplatz, together forming a harmonious whole. With its mix of residential flats, offices, a hotel, shops and restaurants, it is predestined to become a lively urban quarter.
