Location: 114 Heußweg
Use: an electric company, housed on the ground floor. On the roof there are apartments. The area is 460 square meters - divided into five apartments and business premises. The roof is equipped with abundant sized (up to 70 sq m) terraces. So the people of the bunker not too much sweat, even an elevator was installed. The renovation began in August 2000 and ended in May 2001. Not without good reason, the lead architectural firm was awarded the 2002 Prize for Architecture (third rank) of the Association of German Architects and Architects (BDA), the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg eV The similarity to the bunker in the Toni Street is the way, not by chance - there the same architectural firm was the plant. Before rebuilding the facade was complete with a pretty decent trompe l'oeil provided.
Comment: Superb synthesis of old and new or memorial, civil uses, and design. A notable example is the glass-covered site, reflected in the preserved buildings of the opposite side of the road. Note the triangular cut in the concrete behind the glass.
