CG Elementum AG starts construction work on Erfurt real estate project “CHRONICLE

The nationwide real estate project developer CG Elementum AG has started construction work on its Erfurt project CHRONICLE. The high-rise building at the eastern gateway to the old town was home to the Thüringer Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper between 1968 and 1993.

Now the building is being extensively renovated and supplemented by annexes that will close the perimeter of the block. The CHRONICLE ensemble of buildings will feature sustainable condominiums with one to three rooms on a total of around 6,680 square meters of living space, around 230 square meters of commercial space on the first floor and 49 underground parking spaces. From the top floors, residents can enjoy a panoramic view of the historic city center with the famous Erfurt Cathedral. With a few exceptions, the 120 condominiums being built have already been sold. 

Following demolition and breakthrough work on the interior of the high-rise building in recent weeks, scaffolding and structural work on the building’s interior are currently underway. Facade and window work will follow in the coming year. Civil engineering work and the foundation of the floor slab are currently being carried out for the supplementary new buildings. Here, the shell construction will continue until spring 2023. 

The Chief Development Officer of CG Elementum, Ulf Graichen, commented on the start of construction: “Our entire team is very pleased that the construction work has finally started. This means that one of the last unrenovated spots in Erfurt’s city center is now disappearing piece by piece. The buildings will be completed by mid-2024.”
