I know the original plan was that they were going to shut down Tegel, Tempelhof, and Schönefeld and replace them all with BER.
My understanding is that now BER has finally been finished, Schönefeld has been turned into a terminal + runway of BER, and Tegel has recently been shut down. If so, what's going to happen to the Tegel buildings and airfield space now?
- nibix 5y agoThe main Tegel terminal buildings will be converted to house research institutes; this will be the core of a project with the fancy name "Urban Tech Republic". The eastern part of the airfield will be used to build new residential housing ("Schumacher Quartier"). These are quite ambitious plans, construction is expected to complete not before 2027.
