In establishing urban land use planning that will be binding upon the stakeholders involved, our practice is well versed in issues of planning law and urban development, has extensive experience in preparing environmental impact studies and is able to balance out the interests of the parties concerned while organizing streamlined coordination processes and involving the public and bodies of public interest. We develop an in-depth understanding of even the most difficult issues of planning law and are able to identify feasible solutions. As a result of the multi-faceted nature of our projects, our inter-disciplinary work and our cooperation with the most varied clients and parties, our firm has considerable experience in drafting zoning plans that leave sufficient room for variations in implementation, while nonetheless giving a clear identity to the area zoned. We at Jahn, Mack & Partner coordinate the different expert reports and put together specialists from our network (landscaping, environmental impact studies, biotope and species protection, noise and light emissions, traffic, contaminations) and external experts to form teams collaborating as an interdisciplinary group.

Zoning plan 9-16-1 in Treptow-Köpenick, Berlin, in the area of the Adlershof / Johannisthal development project In the interests of allowing adjacent sites to be developed as potential construction areas, the Bebauungsplan 9-16-1 being drafted will primarily serve the infrastructural definition of areas having a road right of way. This process will void the designations made in the zoning plan 9-16 for the area of applicability of this new plan; their effects will be dealt with in the course of the procedure to establish the zoning.

Development of an 18.2 hectare inner-city, business area (core area) and a 4.5 hectare area serving special uses for a “multi-purpose event hall”. The core area was zoned as having an average floor space index (GFZ) of 5.0. The zoning will enable the construction several high-rise buildings (up to 135 m in height) and the development of more than 600,000 m². Environmental impact studies were carried out. In establishing the zoning plans 2-4 VE „Arena at the Ostbahnhof” – for the O2 World – and V-3 “Former Ostgüterbahnhof” in the Berlin district of Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Jahn, Mack & Partner has carried out two highly complex processes serving to establish the Bebauungspläne concerned, which entailed intensive public relations work. We worked on the project on the commission of the Anschutz Entertainment Group and in close cooperation with the District Authority Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg and the Senate Administration for Urban Development of Berlin. During the intensive work phases of the project, weekly project meetings with the client and steering meetings with the District Authority and the Senate Administration for Urban Development had to be generally organized and prepared in terms of the content they addressed; our office was also responsible for following up on the decisions taken. Representatives of the respective expert authorities of the district and the Senate Administration for Urban Development were consulted concerning the relevant issues, as were the planners and experts engaged by us or by Anschutz Entertainment Group. For Büro für Stadtplanung Gerlinde Mack, which was integrated into Jahn, Mack & Partner in 2003, up to ten people were working on this project, including an expert landscape planner specialized in environmental issues and a legal expert for planning law. Gerlinde Mack as the project leader for the zoning plan was responsible for the coordination and control of the zoning plan procedure in terms of its content. From June 2001 until March 2004, a total of 76 steering meetings took place. Each individual stage of the procedure was presented to the urban planning committee of the district. In close cooperation with the Anschutz Entertainment Group, our practice prepared materials and presentations for discussion with the committee by the project leader of the Anschutz Entertainment Group and ourselves. In the process of involving the general public, we set up exhibitions, produced information material and organized information events, addressing both the content to be presented in our work while also taking care of the technical implementation. These two zoning plan procedures were the most complex and work-intensive projects ever handled by our firm. In 2006, also on the commission of the Anschutz Entertainment Group, our practice was involved in drafting the zoning plan V-3-1 for a giant wheel project in the area adjacent to the O2 World site. This procedure continued up to the participation of the authorities and other bodies of public interest, in accordance with section 4 paragraph 2 of the German building code (BauGB). We ascertained the conflicts under planning law and developed the standards to apply under planning law for a project that to date has no predecessors in Germany. At the end of 2006, the client decided to abandon the project. Commissioned by:

Development of a commercial area 7.7 hectares in size. On the commission of the firm +egerland+, our firm drew up the zoning plan and prepared the environmental impact studies. The site was released from the restrictive zoning as a protected biotope by being separated from a protected nature reserve and the transformation of woodland. We coordinated and moderated the urban planning agreement concluded by the municipality, the parties responsible for the project and the forestry authority. Our firm arranged for the expert report by Prof. Dr. Schmidt-Eichstaedt on the compensation measures for the impacts of the zoning, and we prepared the building permit application for the project.

Development of a sophisticated inner-city residential area situated directly opposite the German Foreign Office. The “Berlin Townhouses” pilot project stands for an improved utilization of the urban utilities infrastructure that will enable considerable resource savings. The innovative design of the residence types situated on small and affordable plots strongly appealed to owners interested in occupying the buildings themselves.
