Copenhagen Property Market Report 2018

As part of Nørrebro, Copenhagen Science City (CSC), is spearheading the development of the district as this new location focuses on health and life sciences, cleantech as well as information and communication technologies (ICT). Anchored by the University of Copenhagen, the Metropolitan University College and the Copenhagen University Hospital, CSC strives to create a strong knowledge and innovation community. As part of the masterplan, the stretch of Jagtvej between Tagensvej and Lyngbyvej/Nørre Allé is currently undergoing extensive redevelopment. In the more run-down parts of Nørrebro and the north-western city district of Copenhagen NV, old industrial buildings are on a large scale converted for up-to-date office use, with the buildings typically retaining their original industrial-style exterior. This has given new life for instance to the Rentemestervej area of Copenhagen NV and Titangade/Sigurdsgade at Nørrebro. However, complete urban redevelopment will take time, and the process is projected to be ongoing for years to come. (3) Frederiksberg Encircled by the City of Copenhagen, Frederiksberg constitutes a municipality of its own and is predominantly a vibrant residential district. It enjoys a location close to the CBD and is well serviced by the Copenhagen Metro with several existing stations and more to follow in 2019, once Metro CityRingen is operational. Another advantage of Frederiksberg is the superior availability of parking facilities relative to other central city districts. Frederiksberg contains several pockets of office premises, with the area around Flintholm station establishing itself as a prime office location in recent years. Other areas include the Frederiksberg City Hall square with the Rialto landmark building serving as centrepiece and Gammel Kongevej/ Vodroffsvej near the Copenhagen Lakes with Codanhus as the most prominent office building. (4) Hellerup Hellerup and Tuborg Nord on the waterfront are among the most attractive office areas north of the Copenhagen CBD, featuring a modern office building stock with parking facilities at street level or in underground parking lots. Access by car is fairly good, but the district lacks top-tier public transport as the main train station is not ideally situated vis-à-vis the office clusters of the district. There are no plans to link the district to the Copenhagen Metro.
