ThyssenKrupp Elevator moves into former Barcelona bullring ThyssenKrupp confirms orders for 13 elevators and 25 escalators for the city landmark Las Arenas bullring in Barcelona which is being converted into a shopping and leisure center.
The former "Las Arenas" bullring in Barcelona, one of the landmarks of the city, is currently being converted into a shopping and leisure center. The ambitious construction project, which will retain the historic facade of the 19th century arena, will create an area of around 100,000 square meters for shopping, sport and entertainment. 38 ThyssenKrupp Elevator installations will take care of transportation in the building with its unique architecture. 25 escalators and 13 elevators from ThyssenKrupp Elevator will be fitted in the arena designed by British architect Lord Richard Rogers. One highlight will be six panoramic elevators installed both inside the building and on the outer facade. A huge, virtually transparent dome will cover the entire arena in which the likes of El Cordobes and Dominguin once stood face to face with the bulls. When complete, the new shopping and leisure center, with a public square at ground level, will be linked via footpaths to the nearby Joan Miro Park and the Montjuic district, where several museums and the Olympic stadium are located. Further ThyssenKrupp Elevator reference projects in Barcelona include the airport, the metro network, the Liceo opera house and renowned hotels such as the "Arts", the "Juan Carlos I" and the "OMM". ThyssenKrupp Elevator is one of the leading elevator companies in the world and represented at over 800 locations in more than 60 countries. With approx. 40,000 employees, the company generated sales of over 4.7 billion euros in the fiscal year to September 30, 2007. Products include passenger and freight elevators, escalators and moving walks, stair and platform lifts, passenger boarding bridges as well as quality service for all products.
