Around the turn of the millennium, the city of Bremerhaven began to promote the transformation of port areas and commercial spaces close to the city centre. In the meantime, a maritime centre has developed around the two oldest docks. LloydMarina Wohnungsbau built a residential building with high-quality freehold apartments overlooking the harbour. The proximity to the water meant the balconies had virtually constant draughty breezes.
