The former Starfish discotheque site is to be developed into a mix of commercial and exhibition space as well as service and office space with associated laboratories, workshops and limited retail space. The usage portfolio is to be supplemented by gastronomic offerings as well as event space. The current uses in the existing buildings will continue to be safeguarded. A high proportion of greenery, high-quality open spaces and inner courtyards as well as the creation of a car-free core area are intended to create a high overall quality of stay. On the recommendation of the Aachen-Mitte district council, the planning committee has decided to put development plan no. 1015 "Liebigstraße / Metzgerstraße" on public display. Public participation will run from Monday, October 13 to Friday, November 21.

The documents are available online via the central NRW internet portal beteiligung.aachen.de and beteiligung.nrw.de as well as at www.aachen.de/bauleitplanung. The development plan is also available for public inspection in the administration building at Marschiertor, Lagerhausstraße 20, 4th floor, room 400, Monday to Thursday from 8 am to 12.30 pm and from 1.30 pm to 4 pm, on Wednesdays until 5 pm and on Fridays from 8 am to 1 pm.
