Centro Hotel Hanover
LIST BiB has renovated a nine-story former dormitory and office building belonging to Deutsche Bahn in Hanover to improve its energy efficiency.
Following the renovation, a 3-star hotel was created, which has been leased to the Centro Group for 25 years and features a newly built breakfast and event room on the ground floor.
The building, which had already been completely gutted, was given a new dark trapezoidal sheet metal facade, which was adapted to the neighboring and already renovated main freight station
. In addition to a new roof with technical superstructures, an additional fire elevator was installed – primarily for the evacuation of the upper
floors – and a safety overpressure system in the stairwell, eliminating the need for an additional escape stairwell.
LIST Ingenieure was responsible for the technical building equipment.
