A3 – Space for Ideas

What can be created here? The "A3" area is directly adjacent to the planned Manfred-Rommel-Platz with the light eyes of the main station.

Manfred-Rommel-Platz

The light eyes of Manfred-Rommel-Platz can already be seen. In future, it will form the roof of the station. Large parts of the area are to be greened.

Europaquartier small

Future Europaquartier

The Europaquartier is being built on today's railroad tracks.

Königstraße 1–3

Bahnhofsvorplatz (Station forecourt)

The station forecourt is to be traffic-calmed in the long term. To achieve this, the city ring road is to be extended and routed via Wolframstrasse.

The A3 area is situated right at Manfred-Rommel-Platz, where the skylights of the central station are located. It connects the square with the newly developed Europaquartier and thus is the starting point leading into the new Stuttgart Rosenstein district. With an area of some 60 × 117 metres, the construction field offers space for pioneering design.

A line of trees – an alley – is planned to separate Manfred-Rommel-Platz from the new building at A3. Alternatively or, in addition, the new building could also have a green façade.

Field of Ideas

Where the platforms of the terminus station are still located today, something completely new can be created on an area of around 60 x 117 metres. Your suggestions, wishes and concerns are already being asked for in the participation section. The best ideas for this area will then be selected in an international brainstorming session.

Row of trees and/or green façade

A row of trees is planned between the light eyes on Manfred-Rommel-Platz and the special unit A3. Alternatively or as a supplement, a green façade design might also be possible.

View from Schlossgarten. A line of trees is to separate Unit A3 from Manfred-Rommel-Platz (on the left). An alternative would be a green façade. Parking facilities for cars and bicycles are proposed for the basement floors. Access from the central station is considerably higher than on the side of the planned Europaquartier.
