n 17 March 2016, after build- ing works lasting more than 16 months, the day finally dawned: the opening of the new “Phoenix Foodie” food court marked the completion of the restructuring and expansion of the Phoenix-Center in Hamburg- Harburg, with two new basement- level shopping thoroughfares. The center now has approx- imately 2,500m² of extra retail space. Together with its project partners B&L and ECE, Deutsche EuroShop invested around €30 million in the expansion. The Phoenix- Center now offers some 130 specialist stores, gastronomy concepts and service providers across its roughly 29,000m² of retail space. Visitors were able to experience the first part of the expansion back in November 2015, when Media Markt and BR Spielwaren opened up some larger, new spaces. The drugstore Budnikowski has moved into wholly new premises and greatly expanded its range. H&M is now represented on three levels and has modernised its entire store.
