has invested €20m to buy two purpose-built multi-storey car parks, a supermarket and commercial unit in Austria’s capital.
The manager said the Hauptbahnhof East 1&2 car parks in Vienna were acquired for the European Parking Fund IV from Rhomberg Bau.
Bas Magielse, fund manager of Primevest Capital Partners, said: “The traditional role of car parks as warehouses for vehicles is changing. They are emerging as ‘mobility hubs’, offering a wider range of uses and becoming increasingly integrated into the urban infrastructure landscape, as the availability of expensive on-street parking declines and metropolitan authorities move to restrict vehicle access to city centres.
�Consumers benefit from the additional services these mobility hubs can offer, from electric car charging points to e-commerce ‘pick-up’ services.�
Martin Summer, managing director of Rhomberg Bau in Vienna, said: “Multi-storey car parks are very practical in function, but that hasn’t stopped us placing a lot of emphasis on aesthetics and sustainability during the development of this project in order to ‘future proof’ our investment by safeguarding and maximising its value in the years ahead.�
