As the owners of an important development site on the Rigistrasse in Inwil bei Baar, the Swiss retirement funds V-ZUG and BVK commissioned a study of the site’s existing apartment blocks. The results of the study indicated that a comprehensive renovation of the buildings would be too costly and that it would be far more expedient to demolish and replace the buildings in phases. We supported the cooperative planning process with the municipality, gathered the necessary information, and carried out the planning procedure to assess the site’s development potential.
