In the center of the economic area Krefeld – Mönchengladbach – Dusseldorf lies the Rhenish middle center Kaarst. Through close cooperation between the architect, the city administration and the BTV Projektentwicklung as the client, the Rathaus Arkaden has created an exemplary solution. The measure includes a shopping arcade of about 5,000 square meters, offices and practices as well as park-oriented apartments.
