An urban quarter is to be built on the site of the former MD paper factory, combining residential, commercial, cultural and social uses to create a lively and sustainable district. At the same time, the MÜHLBACHVIERTEL project will establish an urban link between the old town and the banks of the Amper river.
The plans for the MÜHLBACHVIERTEL include a neighbourhood development with apartments and accompanying commercial facilities, as well as two daycare centres, play areas, a football pitch, a beach volleyball court and other areas for leisure and sport. In addition, assisted living facilities are planned. The ‘Mühlenforum’ is a public square that serves as a link to the old town. The mobility concept provides for traffic-calmed access zones. Part of the historic old MD paper factory will be preserved in accordance with monument protection regulations and given a new use.
The commercial activities in the MÜHLBACHVIERTEL will combine offices, hotels, care facilities, medical practices, research/development, light industry, small businesses, local amenities and restaurants. Residential use will include subsidised rental apartments, condominiums and privately financed rental apartments. BUWOG will build 30% subsidised housing. This will be regulated by the urban development contract. 20% are EOF apartments, i.e. income-based subsidised apartments. 10% are subsidised apartments under the local resident model.
The development plan is currently being drawn up, with the city of Dachau leading the process. Demolition and soil remediation work on the site of the former MD paper factory is largely complete.
The conversion of a former industrial site into a new mixed-use quarter is creating a new part of Dachau. Extensive parks and open spaces with a connection to the water (renaturation of the Amper riverbank and uncovering of the previously canalised Mühlbach stream) and green courtyards, roofs and terraces are creating valuable sustainable qualities in the process. Listed buildings will be integrated into the urban development, and the aim is to achieve DGNB Gold certification for the neighbourhood. CO2-neutral neighbourhood supply is already planned, and a sustainable mobility concept for the climate-friendly neighbourhood is in the planning stage. The MÜHLBACHVIERTEL is expected to be fully completed in 2033. (MD)
