New Churches St. Luke & St. Matthew / Meixner Schlüter Wendt

Andreas Luco — Wed, 26 Feb 2025 12:00:00 +0000

The existing ensemble consisting of a childcare facility and the Lukaskirche (Church of St. Luke) is being expanded to feature a new church square, a new parish hall, and the new outer church. The new and enlarged ensemble with the combination of old and new builds reflects the fact that in the course of advancing existing structures, the users by having to give up old builds in exchange for the new, frequently have to bid farewell to the past and try and make the new their own. The site extends, as if along a timeline, from west to east, starting with the childcare center and the existing church and moving into the new parish hall, creating a kind of "building history" which is open-ended thanks to the outer church. The latter, as a constructed intermediate state, can be read ambivalently as half-open/half-closed, and using construction to depict a process. As a realm of possibilities and as an open space in both senses it points to the future.

Right on the waterfront in Frankfurt’s Osthafen district, the new office building The Docks comes together with Dock 2.0, a slab-like existing structure, to create a homogenous ensemble. The area surrounding this new office building is dotted with industrial complexes and warehouse facilities and characterized by the uniquely special atmosphere of a container port.

The new “Stadtgärten am Henninger Turm” residential quarter is being rounded out with a new-build childcare center. This childcare center is located in the heart of the quarter, right on the East-West promenade that leads from the historical Henniger Villa to the new Henninger Turm residential high-rise. Complementing the neighborhood shopping center in the building at the high-rise's base, the childcare center livens up the new shared heart of the Henninger district, which boasts almost 1000 apartments.
