The façade of the building will be 30% green and El Barrio will have a sustainable energy supply. The car park will have spaces for both cars and bicycles, as well as an energy center.

Description of project by asp Architekten
Parking garage with integrated energy centre by asp Architekten in Stuttgart Bad Cannstatt‘s Neckarpark.
In the location of the former Stuttgart Bad Cannstatt freight station, the Neckarpark mixed-use district will gradually be built over the next few years. One day, 2,000 people will live and work on the 22-hectare site. In the spirit of sustainable, future-oriented urban planning, the neighbourhood is to play a pioneering role in terms of both energy and environmental policy. It is planned that 30 per cent of the entire façade will be greened and that the district will have its own sustainable energy supply.
Since the neighbourhood is located in a protected area for medicinal springs, only a small number of parking spaces can be located in underground parking garages. This gave rise to the idea of building a parking garage that would accommodate cars and bicycles as well as the energy centre. The architects of asp succeeded in solving the complex task and designing an identity-creating building that marks the kick-off for the new neighbourhood.
