LEIPZIG BANK EARTHWORKS PROGRESS

Preparation works for the construction of the excavation pit are progressing on site. A diaphragm wall construction will go down to ca. 31 metres below ground in order to deal with the high water levels and enable construction of the retaining walls for the basement. Construction started with the installation of concrete guide walls to set out the position of the diaphragm walls around the site measuring 100 m x 100 m. Currently four drills are on site to carry out the drilling of ca. 6.400 metres length. Two diaphragm wall grabs are preparing the diaphragm wall in which the retaining walls will be inserted as sheet piles. Explosive ordnance surveys were carried out in advance of construction as this part of the historic city centre of Leipzig had been severely bombed in 1943.

Mamsha Gardens draws inspiration from the natural surroundings of the island and boasts signature landscaped gardens in which residents can relax and unwind. The gardens will feature water-efficient irrigation systems and a selection of native plant species, ensuring that the landscape thrives with minimal resource consumption.

The development features seven residential buildings comprising 493 homes thoughtfully designed with premium finishes and fittings. The development features a range of amenities, including two centrally located pavilions with gyms, yoga, Pilates and meditation rooms, as well as swimming pools, kids’ play areas, a multi-use games area, underground parking, bike storage, and residents’ lounges with workspaces and lounge seating. 

Mamsha Gardens will also include restaurants with outdoor dining terraces and shops, as well as a community theatre and separate retail underground parking. The locations of each of these spaces have been strategically designed to attract foot traffic and provide a vibrant social space while affording residents the utmost privacy.

In line with Aldar’s goals to promote sustainable living and building practices, the development is targeting a 3 Pearl Estidama rating and a 3-star rating from Fitwel - the world’s leading certification system for optimising building health and wellness outcomes. 50% of both retail and residential parking will be EV ready, and residents will have several pedestrian routes to explore.
