Eurogate Zürich, Modern architectural structure in Europaallee district, Zürich, Switzerland
Eurogate is an architectural complex at the southwestern edge of Zurich Central Station, housing shops, offices, and residential units across multiple levels. The structure extends along Lagerstrasse and links different parts of the city through traffic areas and pedestrian routes.
The project started in 1980 under the name HB-Südwest and went through several redesigns before architect Ralph Bänziger won an urban planning competition. His victory marked the turning point for the complex's current design.
The location shows how contemporary Swiss cities blend housing, offices, and shared spaces together. The design shapes how people move through the area, work, and gather in their daily routines.
The complex sits directly beside the main railway station with convenient connections to multiple tram lines and other transport options. Its walkable location makes it easily accessible for visitors and commuters.
The complex features an extensive network of pedestrian pathways that connect different parts of the city and serve as an important linking route. These paths allow people to bridge considerable distances without using the street.
