The Elbbrücken quarter invites you to Amerigo-Vespucci-Platz.
18.06.2021 – HafenCity's largest square has been completed and officially opened by Hamburg's Mayor. It is well worth a visit!
With its slightly sloping situation, Amerigo-Vespucci-Platz offers a wide view from the Elbbrücken quarter over the Baakenhafen and Baakenpark. The neighbourhood is still growing all around, but the square already offers a wide variety of spaces for communication, leisure and recreation on an area of almost 10,000 square metres.
The open spaces were designed and planned by landscape architects Atelier LOIDL. The result is impressive. Sophisticated civil engineering, hidden and beautifully camouflaged under green islands and brick surfaces, secures and gives access to the various levels of the square, from the quayside promenade to the higher built urban spaces - even at high tide.
