Visit Rout Lëns: The first open house on the construction site

Rout Lëns

Published on 25/04/25

A new chapter is unfolding in Esch-sur-Alzette with the emergence of Rout Lëns, a sustainable, exemplary, and resilient urban development led by IKO Real Estate. This forward-thinking district, designed according to the 15-minute city principles, is now taking shape: construction is moving forward rapidly, and the first buildings will soon rise.

The Construction of the First Block: A Transformation Underway

At the heart of Rout Lëns, work on the first block is in full swing. The underground parking structure is nearly complete, with the -2 level slab now finished. This solid structural foundation will soon support the future residences.

Starting in May 2025, the vertical structures of the Liicht, D’Haus, and the municipal residence for the City of Esch will begin to emerge. A symbolic and highly visual milestone for this future-oriented neighbourhood, so that the Rout Lëns teams have decided to open the construction site to the public!
