Merkur City Offices Graz – Handover Completed

The Wilhelminian-era buildings Joanneumring 22, Neutorgasse 55, and Kaiserfeldgasse 21, located on the former Joanneum grounds, have been extensively renovated across all existing floors for future rental and additionally extended by 2 stories. Planning for this highly complex construction project began in 2020, and now, approximately 4 years later, the handover to the client has taken place. The new two-story roofscape was implemented with a steel structure, its design echoing the historical roof form. The use of 3D planning tools enabled the construction of complex roof intersections. The new roof geometry unites the three buildings into an exceptional and unique ensemble. The entire existing structure was also gutted and extensively rebuilt. The entire building complex was thus modernized, and historical areas restored. For this project, with a total gross floor area of approximately 10,500 m², Thomas Lorenz ZT GmbH continued the architectural design in the execution phase and took over the services of planner coordination. The result is impressive! Thanks to the collaboration of all parties involved, the completion of the MCO workspaces was made possible this year. We thank everyone involved for their excellent cooperation!
