Location descriptions | Residential – Market Report 2019

Nordhavn The Nordhavn district comprises the Østre Gasværk site, Søndre Frihavn, Marmormolen and Nordhavn (the north harbour) itself, which enjoys an attractive waterfront location just north of the Copenhagen city centre with easy access to Nordhavn station. In the past, Nordhavn was predominantly home to a large part of the city’s harbour-re- lated industries, but today they only take up roughly half of the area. Since redevelopment start, the harbour areas of Søndre Frihavn have evolved into an attractive maritime city district offering residential and office space. Next follows the redevelopment of Nordhavn and Marmormolen, where the UN has centralised its Danish head-office activities. The plan is for Nordhavn to become a densely built and sustainable city district where construction on the waterfront will serve to maintain a maritime ambience. Infrastructure is deemed essential for the development of the area, which will be linked to the Copenhagen Metro grid in 2020. Furthermore, the road of Nordhavnsvej opened in 2017, providing swift access to the regional road grid. With 3.6 million sqm in total scheduled for completion in multiple stages, the scale of the Nordhavn development area is massive. Fully developed, the area may accommodate more than 40,000 residents and some 40,000 workplaces. The Nordhavn district includes Århusgadekvarteret, which is expected to be fully devel- oped in a couple of years or so. In addition, the artificial island of Kronløbsøen and Redmolen will come into play as new residential development areas after the opening of the new Metro station in 2020.
