Construction is in full swing at our major development site in Kirchbichl, Austria. We’re now moving into the next phase of the Office Tower project: the tower crane is officially in place!
Over the past few days, some of the most impressive equipment in modern construction has arrived on site to help us build this 55-meter-tall office tower, floor by floor.
While the foundation for Office Tower 1 was laid in the spring using bored piles approximately 10 meters long, the building's shell is now rising steadily. After the first floor was poured, we switched from cast-in-place concrete to precast concrete elements and accelerated the pace: one of the 13 floors is completed every two weeks until we reach a height of approximately 55 meters.
In parallel, earthworks have recently started for the spacious parking garage, which will offer over 500 covered parking spaces.
Kirchbichl, May 28, 2026 – More than 200 invited guests from business, politics, and society attended the event held on May 28, 2026, at the large-scale construction site of the “HorizonQuarter” in Kirchbichl. In a ceremonial setting and in the presence of Tyrolean Governor Anton Mattle, a significant milestone for the forward-looking major project was celebrated in the nearly completed North Logistics Hall: on the one hand, the North Logistics Hall, the first building structure, will soon commence operations; on the other hand, construction of the additional buildings has recently begun—most notably the impressive office complex rising approximately 55 meters (180 feet) high.
The starting signal for the HQ Office, the centerpiece of Horizon Quarter Kirchbichl, has been given! While little is visible on the surface, the specialized deep foundation work is currently creating the structural base for the future 13-story building.
