Unfortunately, very little information is available about the building Merckhof. If you can help (year of construction, architect), I would be grateful. In 2019, it was renovated and refurbished by https://www.maa-architekten.de.

The modern office building from the 1960s is located near Mönckebergstraße. Unfortunately, there is very little information about it online. I would appreciate any information about the year of construction and the architect. Thank you very much! The beautiful round staircase is definitely interesting. A semicircle of windows provides light.

In 1906-1907, an office building was built in Grosse Johannisstrasse for the merchant and senator Otto Westphal. In order not to disturb the character of the building, the elevator was adapted to the design. Unfortunately, the architect responsible is not known. If you know anything, please get in touch here.

Nach mehreren Eigentümerwechseln ging das Gebäude in den Besitz einer Körperschaft des Öffentlichen Rechts. Diese betreibt dort medizinische Dienstleistungen. Von dieser wurde freundlicherweise die Erlaubnis zum Fotografieren erteilt und ich mit historischen Informationen versorgt. Vielen Dank dafür.

On Katharinenbrücke stands an inconspicuous office building with a remarkable staircase. Its colors and shape are unusual. Unfortunately, the light well is interrupted by multiple safety nets. In 1907, the office building was constructed by master builder Heinrich Mandix (details unknown). The Krahnstöverhaus had stood on this site since 1661. In 1931, an elevator was added to the building.

After several changes of ownership, the building became the property of a public corporation, which operates medical services there. The corporation kindly granted permission to take photographs and provided me with historical information. Many thanks for that.

The Ratshof is an office building very close to Hamburg City Hall. The splendor of other office buildings cannot be found here. It is a rather practical building with a staircase dating from the 1950s / 1960s.

The Gronehaus in Hermannstrasse was built in 1905-1906 by architects Leon Frejtag (1862-1927) and Hermann Wurzbach (1865-1905). The client was Heinrich Grone, whose commercial schools have existed since 1895 and still do today. The architects Schiefler & Denke (now https://denkerdenker.de) were responsible for the renovation and extension of the building in 1993. Restoration work was carried out in 2007.

The beautiful Kontorhaus near the Binnenalster was built in 1904 by the architect Claus Meyer (1870-1922). It was renovated in 2003-2004, preserving the charm of the old days. The preservation order was observed. The building got its name from the bank that resided there until 2009. The bank Hesse Newman & Co. was founded in 1777.

The historic Kontorhaus from 1906 awaits visitors with a beautiful façade. The architect was Gustav C. E. Blohm (1869-1943). Inside, the beautiful façade is replaced by unadorned tiles and metal railings from the 1950s. An elevator was installed at a later date.

One of the last buildings from the late Gründerzeit period opposite the Speicherstadt is the Kontorhaus am Vorsetzen, which was built in 1902 and is a listed building. After many years, a complete refurbishment was necessary. This was carried out by https://www.maa-architekten.de Unfortunately, there is no information about the client and architect of the original building.

Built in 1910, the Kontorhaus suffered major damage to the roof truss in 1943. After the end of the war, the upper storeys were rebuilt down to the fourth level. The building was completely renovated and extended in 2006. Hakki Akyol and Philipp Kamps were responsible for this. Unfortunately, no information is available on the architect of the original building.
