About this process
Participation events on the Papierwerd site
The Papierwerd site is located in the centre of Zurich, directly on the Limmat between the main railway station and the Niederdorf. The current building on the Papierwerd site was completed in 1961. The Globus provisional, as the building is popularly called, was built as a temporary solution during the construction period of the new Globus department store on the Pestalozziwiese. It was supposed to remain standing for eight years, but has now been home to many different uses for more than 60 years.

Strategy process
Today, the building is in dire need of renovation and the handling of the area is unclear. On behalf of the municipal council, the City of Zurich is therefore developing the basis for the development of the Papierwerd site as part of a multi-stage strategy process. The Forum Papierwerd was initiated for dialogue with the public. Between April and November 2022, experts from various disciplines, representatives of politics, clubs, organizations, associations, administration and residents met in four events at the forum. They discussed four scenarios for the Papierwerd site (preservation, new construction, open space/space and combinations of these approaches), drafted ideas and requirements and recorded approaches for action for the Papierwerd site in text form and spatial models.
The results of the Papierwerd Forum were summarised in eleven central statements. These are an important basis for the strategy for the future of the Papierwerd site. The strategy will be determined by the Zurich City Council in 2023. All information about the Papierwerd-Areal strategy process and the results can be found online: stadt-zuerich.ch/papierwerdareal
