Astropark in Frankfurt receives WiredScore Platinum Certification

Highest building award for digital infrastructure, connectivity, and sustainability

The "astropark" located at Lyoner Str. 9 in the prestigious Lyoner Quarter of Frankfurt has achieved another milestone: The WiredScore Platinum Certification. This certification signifies outstanding digital infrastructure and connectivity in real estate.

WiredScore, the rating system for digital infrastructure and connectivity, assesses properties based on their reliability, user experience, mobile signal availability, connectivity choices, and future-proofing. A WiredScore Platinum status certifies a building's top standards in all of these categories.

This recent success of the astropark follows closely on the heels of receiving the BREEAM certificate, an internationally recognized award for sustainable buildings. The BREEAM certification evaluates the environmental impacts of buildings and underscores their commitment to green building practices and eco-friendly operational strategies.

The location of the astropark in the Lyoner Quarter is home to numerous renowned companies. Its proximity to the Main River, the city forest, and downtown Frankfurt, combined with excellent access to public transportation, highways, and Frankfurt Airport, enhances the site's attractiveness. The astropark itself impresses with its distinctive architecture, expansive glass facades, and its setting amidst park-like grounds.

With these two certifications – WiredScore Platinum and BREEAM – the astropark confirms its position as a front-runner in the fields of digital connectivity and sustainable buildings in Frankfurt and beyond.
