Überbauung Grünau, Residential complex in Altstetten, Switzerland
The Überbauung Grünau consists of two 250-meter-long residential buildings and a high-rise tower situated between the Limmat River and Bernerstrasse.
Construction of the Überbauung Grünau began in 1976 as part of Zurich's initiative to create additional housing and prevent population decline in the city.
The residential development incorporates 705 apartments designed for different social groups, along with a school, community center, and senior living facilities.
The complex sits near the intersection of Tüffenwies, Grünauring, Brändlistrasse, and Meierwiesenstrasse, providing multiple access points for residents and visitors.
At the time of its construction, this development ranked as the largest residential project in Zurich, marking a significant shift in urban planning approaches.
