Freiham is Munich‘s most important urban expansion and housing project of recent times. A new district will be built on a total area of 350 hectares, where around 25,000 people will live and 15,000 people will work. Our part of the project, the district centre at the Freiham urban train station, is the busy hub of the new urban quarter. An urban, vibrant neighbourhood with a mix of apartments, retail, office, hotel, and restaurant spaces is being developed around the centrally located Mahatma Gandhi Square. Its expressive design feature, the sculptural arcade architecture surrounding the square, makes it immediately recognizable and identifiable.
