Main-Taunus-Zentrum invests 20 million Euro in high-quality gastronomy and attractive outdoor areas

Five new freestanding restaurant buildings are to be built which feature partly covered, partly open terraces, attractively styled, green outdoor areas and sophisticated architecture.

The owners of the center, Deutsche EuroShop and a closed-end real estate, are investing approx. 20 million Euro in the strategic development of the center, while ECE Marketplaces, which operates and leases the center, is responsible for the planning and implementation of the project. The realization is planned for 2024. First gastronomy concepts are to be presented already in the next few months.

The new “Foodgarden” will be built on an area of around 7,000 sq m in the heart of the shopping center in place of a former department store building and will include up to seven regional and international restaurant concepts as well as complementary delicatessen offerings with further culinary specialties. The aim of the project is to add further highlights and an extensive range of gastronomic offerings to the high-quality tenant mix, to further enhance the quality and length of stay in the Main-Taunus-Zentrum, and to strengthen its character as an open urban destination center.

Currently, the area is already being used successfully with a new gastronomy concept: On an area of more than 1,000 sq m, a total of ten food trucks and sales stands offer a variety of food and beverages in the open air – and the temporary offer is already very well received by the center’s customers.

Opened in 1964, the Main-Taunus-Zentrum has 170 stores on a sales area of over 90,000 sq m, including concepts such as Apple, Anson’s, Breuninger, Hollister and Zara, as well as a multiplex cinema.
