The centrepiece of the development will be the former Tegel Airport’s main terminal. Architects gmp-Architekten—founded by Meinhard von Gerkan and Volkwin Marg—are redesigning the building into a central forum for startups and research institutions. This space will anchor the new Urban Tech Republic, an innovation hub aimed at attracting tech firms and academic partnerships.
The €370 million injection will reshape Tegel into a mixed-use district combining education, research, and commercial activity. Once complete, the area is projected to generate several thousand jobs near me and stimulate long-term economic benefits for Reinickendorf. Construction and tenant move-ins will proceed in stages, with the first businesses expected to occupy spaces from late 2025 onwards.
