SWIETELSKY breaks ground for a prime example of infill construction

05.10.2023

Work can begin at Stumpergasse 56 in the 6th district of Vienna. With the Swietelsky branch office for structural engineering East, modern municipal apartments will be created here in the name of Viennese housing by July 2025, offering more than just a roof over one's head.

46 innovative residential units with a choice of balcony, loggia, or terrace and an exclusive commercial unit create space for living, working, and feeling good. The basement provides parking for 32 cars and 117 bicycles. A special highlight: the green facade in the courtyard, which not only pleases the eye but also makes an active contribution to climate protection. The planned street-side greening with decorative elements and planting also contributes to this. “We are particularly pleased about the Climate Active Silver certification,” emphasizes Erich Laller, site manager of the Swietelsky branch office for structural engineering East in Vienna. And with the EcoBuy management, the construction project sets new standards.

Ecological and Chic

Wood-aluminum windows, parquet flooring, and tiled wet rooms guarantee high-quality furnishings. The urban gardening concept, a 350m² large community garden with a playground, and two spacious community terraces make green hearts beat faster. Sustainable energy supply is a matter of course, thanks to district heating and photovoltaics.

Mastering Challenges

Swietelsky also masters the demanding task of infill construction despite the narrow access road and limited storage space. Always with the vision in mind to turn a sustainable and attractive living space into reality. Roller shutters and venetian blinds provide cooling in summer, and the underfloor heating brings cozy warmth to the four walls in winter.

More than just a construction project

The groundbreaking at Stumpergasse 56 is more than the start of a new construction project. It is the starting signal for a livable, green, and future-oriented way of living in the heart of Vienna. Swietelsky shows what modern construction looks like today: sustainable, ecological, and focused on quality of life.
