Green High-Rise Project WoHo in Kreuzberg Fails for Now

The district council (BVV) of Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg voted against the ‘WoHo’ construction project on Thursday. The Greens’ project envisioned a 100-meter-tall timber building with social housing and commercial spaces.

The Greens managed to postpone the vote at the last second. A final decision remains open for now. The Left Party and SPD factions had previously signaled their rejection.

EuroPulse reported on May 24, 2026, about the Greens politician Beck’s demand for a higher basic allowance in the tax reform (link).
