Built at the beginning of the last century, the Kaufmannshaus is located in the heart of Hamburg’s city center and stands as an architectural gem in the middle of the city’s Passagenviertel. With its impressive Kontorhaus-style architecture, direct connection to the Bleichenfleet canal, and its position at the busy Bleichenbrücke / Große Bleichen intersection, the Kaufmannshaus forms the unmistakable western gateway for all visitors to the area. The Neuer Wall, Alsterhaus, City Hall, and Inner Alster Lake are all just a short walk away.
VÖLKEL has taken on a comprehensive management mandate for the Kaufmannshaus, including technical and commercial property management, accounting, and leasing services.
The Kaufmannshaus enjoys excellent connections to Hamburg’s public transport network via U-Bahn and S-Bahn. Its prominent corner location ensures high visibility, and three entrances provide access to the high footfall of the city center. The strong line-up of premium retail tenants and the attractive office spaces on the upper floors make for an excellent tenant mix in this appealing mixed-use property.
VAs a leading specialist in the holistic management, development, and leasing of commercial real estate, VÖLKEL continues to expand its portfolio in the management of mixed-use urban commercial properties with strong growth potential through this new mandate. For Dirk Völkel, Managing Partner of VÖLKEL, this project brings things full circle: after managing other Hamburg landmarks such as the Hamburger Hof arcades at Jungfernstieg and the former Gänsemarkt Passage two decades ago, this marks a return to the very heart of the Hanseatic city.
