Destination Jelmoli
Short description
The traditional building in Zurich's city center will be renovated over two years from the beginning of 2025. Afterwards, the lower floors will offer newly designed, high-quality retail space of around 13,000 m², with office and service space of around 20,000 m² above and a roofscape with a unique gastronomy offering.
The project
