AIHK submits building application for its new construction project
The Aargau Chamber of Commerce and Industry (AIHK) has submitted the building application for its new building project to the city of Aarau. Depending on the building permit, construction work is expected to start at the beginning of 2025.
With the building application to the city of Aarau at the end of September, the new building project of the Aargau Chamber of Commerce and Industry(AIHK) has reached an important milestone, according to an article in the magazine “Impulse” published by the AIHK. Depending on the building permit, construction work is expected to start at the beginning of 2025, the article continues. The building permit for the new Haus der Wirtschaft was handed over by AIHK President Beat Bechtold to City President Hanspeter Hilfiker and City Clerk Fabian Humbel in front of Aarau City Hall, the report says.
The AIHK project team had already been in contact with various city officials beforehand, the report continues. For example, the city architect and the city image commission were consulted when it came to realising a building project that was as broadly supported as possible.
The approval process starts with the building application. Demolition is planned for the end of 2024. The new building is expected to be ready for occupation in the third quarter of 2026.
On the one hand, the new facilities in the new Haus der Wirtschaft will enable more professional courses and events to be held, the report in “Impulse” continues. On the other hand, the new building stands for the progressive digitalisation and modernisation that has been taking place at the association for several years.
