German shopping centre specialist ECE will open the EUR 75 mln extension to the Main-Taunus-Zentrum near Frankfurt on Thursday. The extension increases the size of the sales area by 12,000 m2 to a total of 91,000 m2.

The addition of 70 new shops will mean the centre has 170 specialist stores, cafés, restaurants and service outlets. The number of parking spaces will increase by 500 to 4,500.

The modernisation and extension work was carried out by project partners DWS, Deutsche EuroShop and ECE.
