Neufreimann MU 1(9)
In Munich’s new Neufreimann neighborhood, MKE is developing 144 affordable rental apartments on construction lot MU 1(9), with commercial space on the ground floor and first floor—designed according to a continuous grid that stacks underground parking, commercial space, and residential units on top of one another.
On the site of the former Bayernkaserne, Neufreimann is taking shape as one of Germany’s largest urban development projects: 5,500 apartments for up to 15,000 people are being built on approximately 60 hectares. On the MU 1(9) construction site on Henny-Seidemann-Straße, MKE is carrying out a second project in the neighborhood alongside MU 1(8) West.
The project calls for 144 rent-controlled apartments with a total living area of approximately 8,280 m². Seventy-five percent of the apartments are reserved for specific target groups, such as workers in high-demand occupations and seniors. All apartments are accessible. On the ground floor and first floor, commercial spaces complement the residential units, along with a common room and an underground parking garage.
The design consists of a tower with up to eleven stories and a lower section of the building surrounding a landscaped courtyard. The structural framework follows a uniform 4-meter grid, with underground parking, commercial spaces, and apartments stacked one above the other, and the standard floors repeating in a regular pattern. This simplifies planning and construction. Red clinker brick facades with wooden accents, rooftop gardens, the public “Grüne Gasse,” and communal areas define the building’s character.
MKE is an investor, developer, and project developer. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2027, with completion planned for 2029.

Green at every level.
The courtyard, rooftop gardens, terraces, and the public “Grüne Gasse” together form the open space of the development site. Green roofs retain rainwater, while depressions in the courtyard and along the “Grüne Gasse” collect it; the plants provide cooling and create habitats for insects and birds. The illustrations show the concept from the competition.
