33Deutsche EuroShopANNUAL REPORT 2014 CENTER ZEIT FÜR EINE SCHÖNE PAUSE. Expansion plans Work on the expansion of the Phoenix-Center in Hamburg-Harburg is progressing swiftly. A Food court for the Phoenix- Center Hamburg The shopping gallery in the base- ment will gain some 2,500 m² in additional retail floor space by spring 2016, which will include a food court with twelve food vendors and seating for around 300 patrons. The expansion will cost approximately €30 million. Opened in 2004, the Phoenix-Center currently features around 110 specialist shops over some 26,500 m² of retail floor space on three levels. The center’s anchor tenants include a consumer elec- tronics store (MediaMarkt), cloth- ing stores (C&A, H&M, Sinn Leffers) and a supermarket (REWE). During the expansion work, the row of shops in the basement will be expanded to form a triangular mall which will lend it the same general floor plan as the rows of shops on both the ground floor and the top floor. The basement will also boast a new attraction – a modern food court served by twelve different food ven- dors and a common dining area with seating for around 300 patrons. The Phoenix-Center is centrally located between the Harburg train station and the pedestrian zone. It attracts people from southern Hamburg and the surrounding areas. Around 680,000 people live in the catchment area. With the Harburg train and S-Bahn station and the cen- tral bus station located directly next to the center, it is extremely well con- nected to the public transportation network. Once the expansion has been completed, around 1,400 park- ing spaces will be available to visitors arriving by car. C Another chapter might yet be written in the success story of the Galeria Baltycka in Gdansk, Poland. Possible expansion at the Galeria Baltycka Gdansk We are currently looking into an expansion which would provide around 15,000 m² in additional leasable space and some 70 new shops. According to the current plans, the new passageway might allow visitors to cross over from the current mall to the new part of the building from 2017 onward. A spectacular building-within-a-building construction fea- turing an enormous glass ceiling will bathe the center in sunshine and lend it a very welcom- ing atmosphere. Ever since its grand opening in early October 2007, the Galeria Baltycka has been one of northern Poland’s most po- pular shopping destinations. With around 39,500 m² of leasable space, it presently of- fers more than 190 shops and a large food court and serves a catchment area of over one million people.
