Start of construction of the forest town Im Pantli

Schlieren ZH/Schaffhausen, January 2025

Halter AG has initiated the construction of Waldstadt on the forest clearing Im Pantli in Schaffhausen. In collaboration with Schaffhausen-based DOST Architektur GmbH, 214 owner-occupied flats are being built there.

Halter AG has begun construction of the Waldstadt in Pantli. The ground-breaking ceremony for the residential project in the Pantli forest clearing in Schaffhausen took place on 10 January, the Schlieren-based property developer announced in a press release. The 214 condominiums planned in Waldstadt are being realised by Halter in collaboration with DOST Architektur GmbH from Schaffhausen.

“The Waldstadt project in Pantli is making a valuable contribution to urban development,” says Mayor Peter Neukomm in the press release, quoting from his speech at the ground-breaking ceremony. “The development should serve as a model for future construction projects and strengthen Schaffhausen as a location for sustainable and innovative living.” Waldstadt is designed as living space for different living models.

Specifically, the residential project aims to appeal to families and couples as well as singles and commuters. A kindergarten and daycare centre are also planned. Open spaces and communal facilities are intended to create “ideal conditions for harmonious coexistence”, according to the press release.

Planning and realisation are based on the requirements of the Swiss sustainability standard. Around two and a half years have been estimated as the construction period for the first stage. The first of the 2.5- to 5.5-room flats should be ready for occupancy as early as next year.
