Main Plaza

Main Plaza is a high-rise building in Sachsenhausen with 23 floors and a distinctive perforated facade crowned by 84 golden spires at its peak. The structure functions as both a hotel and residential complex in the Deutschherrn Quarter.

Construction took place between 1998 and 2002 under architect Hans Kollhoff's design. He integrated architectural elements from 1920s New York into the Frankfurt cityscape.

The building draws inspiration from American design with colored brick and Art Deco elements that echo 1920s New York architecture. These references shape how the financial district looks and feels today.

The building is easy to spot in the financial district and serves as a useful landmark for orientation, especially thanks to its distinctive silhouette. Its location provides good access to nearby museums and dining options in the neighborhood.

The 84 golden spires form a distinctive crown that glows particularly brightly at sunrise and sunset. These details create a striking silhouette when viewed from different points around the city.
