Simon Koenig, founder and CEO of Lakeward: “In cooperation with our partners, we are creating a new, vibrant residential district in a great location. A daycare centre, play areas, green courtyards and green roofs will also add value to the immediate surroundings. Today's foundation stone laying marks the birth of an urban, sophisticated, yet affordable residential space and will further boost Lichtenberg’s credentials as a residential, living and working district of Berlin.

Lakeward has set itself the goal of making ‘Environmental Social Governance’ (ESG) a key focus of the project. PORR will support this initiative and actively contribute as a business.
