28-10-23Initiative An.ders Urania Petition
The high-rise building at Urania 4-10 in Berlin Schöneberg is owned by the State of Berlin and was designed by Werner Düttmann in the 1960s. The building is set to be demolished in January 2024. This poses a risk of losing an icon of Berlin architecture. Moreover, in the context of the climate crisis, demolishing a structurally functioning concrete high-rise is an outdated practice.
Call to Action
We urge the BIM as the owner of the building and the Senate Department for Urban Development to:
1. Initiate an immediate stop of the mechanical demolition
2. Declare the property as a matter of overarching urban importance and initiate a plan for reuse
3. Transform the planned competition for the new construction into a two-stage competition for the reuse of the building
