Urban Development



Designing an attractive city by the sea is a paramount goal for urban developers in Bremerhaven. To reach this goal, a development concept based on future requirements and the needs of the people who live here has been devised.

BIS was heavily involved as project sponsor and coordinator in the redesigning of Bremerhaven's city centre. In a further step, it is now working with the 'CITY SKIPPER Bremerhaven' association on ways to market the city centre, and on improving links between the city centre and the 'Old/New Harbour' development. BIS has also been entrusted with the task of creating the German Emigration Museum, which with its eye-catching architecture and international relevance will contribute to the successful marketing of Bremerhaven.

'Dynamic vivaciousness' captures the essence of Bremerhaven's outward appearance and urban culture. BIS is a central element within a lively network comprised of residents, planners, local authorities and enterprises.
