The Estrel Tower is a 176 m tall skyscraper topped-out in the Neukölln district of Berlin, Germany. After its completion in 2025 the building will become Berlin's tallest building and Germany's tallest hotel.[1]
History
[edit | edit source]In 2013 the Estrel Hotel started a competition for the realization of a high-rise next to the existing hotel building located on the Sonnenallee. The competition was won by Barkow Leibinger (founded by Frank Barkow and Regine Leibinger) who proposed a series of triangulated volumes resembling the game of Tangram in response to the existing hotel building and the low-rise surrounding neighbourhoods. The proposal included a skyscraper with a sloped silhouette and a roof terrace oriented to the city.[2]
In December 2017 the borough assembly of Neukölln gave its permission for the project.[3] Ekkehard Streletzki, the owner of the Estrel Hotel, adjusted the plans for the exclusive usage as a hotel building during the COVID-19 pandemic to a mixed usage with 525 hotel rooms and 9,000 m2 (97,000 sq ft) of office space.[4]
The construction started in November 2021.[5] The project aims to earn a LEED Platinum certification.[6]
