Vivawest creates over 200 new apartments in Cologne-Rodenkirchen!

in Cologne something happens on the housing market: The Gelsenkirchen housing company Vivawest has acquired two construction fields in the Rodenkirchen district and plans to build over 200 new apartments. This initiative, which is part of the larger project in the Ringviertel, is promoted by Bauwens Development and Convalor project partners. The range of housing in the city, where the demand for living space is becoming higher, is being significantly expanded. Likewise, we have to keep the situation in Cologne in mind: the offer is still scarce, and people are desperately looking for their new home.

Bastian Brusinski, Head of Portfolio Management from Vivawest, is aware of the importance of this development: "Cologne is a much sought -after location," he says, "and we want to help families, young professionals and people with little income can also live here." A mix of publicly funded and free -financed apartments is sought and should meet different demand.

New living concept in the Ringviertel

The project provides for the construction of four residential buildings with a total of 209 units, with 51 of these apartments for households with low incomes being publicly funded and priced. The entire area comprises around 14,400 square meters and is located centrally on the ring road in Rodenkirchen. The planned completion of the apartments is planned for mid -2029.

All new buildings will correspond to the efficiency house standard 40 QNG and equipped with modern heat pumps and photovoltaic systems, which not only ensures environmental friendliness, but also for low operating costs. An underground car park with 136 parking spaces will also be part of the project to offer the new residents a comfortable parking space.

public areas and Christian educational institutions

public green and playing areas are also integrated into the planning, which ensures a family-friendly environment. But that's not all! Further living rooms and a daycare center could also be created on the remaining construction fields 3 and 4. This additional infrastructure will help create a lively and attractive living environment that appeals to both young and old.

The city of Cologne already approved the development plan for the entire area at the end of 2024, and those responsible hope for a quick provision of state funding so that the subsidized apartments can be quickly implemented. Markus Greitemann, a deputy for planning and building in Cologne, has expressed a positive statement about the progress and emphasizes the urgency to implement these residential projects quickly.

future prospects and funding programs

North Rhine-Westphalia relies on the support of housing with low-interest loans in order to create urgently needed living space. This should also benefit other projects in the city. Whether they are new buildings or adaptations of existing living spaces - the support should primarily benefit the households with low incomes to bind them to Cologne.

Vivawest is not only on an expansion course in Cologne, because the company currently has around 4,900 apartments in the cathedral city. The official start of construction for the new project is planned for early 2026, and the city is looking forward to what will be created there. [ it-boltWise ] becomes.
