Two high-rise buildings on a 4-story base form an ensemble with the Swisscom Tower and the Escher Terraces marking a gateway to the Zurich West quarter. The ground floor level accommodates a modern tram depot hall designed to hold a total of 25 tram composition. Above, two-story townhouses are arranged along the longitudinal sides. These establish a geometric and volumetric connection to the existing listed head buildings of the old tram depot and integrate the precisely placed residential towers, each around 70 meters tall. Inbetween, a semi-public, versatile, and green open space unfolds atop the depot hall. The new urban development offers a diverse range of housing for approximately 550 residents.
