Opéra car park in Zurich

Project overview

The new Opéra car park with 299 parking spaces on two basement floors is located below the Sechseläutenplatz square, just in front of the opera house. Thanks to the extremely large spans of the ceiling, no pillars are required within the manoeuvring area. The construction allows for unlimited use of the Sechseläutenplatz square.
