Summary:
Leipzig is the perfect example of an east German boomtown. Courageous decisions were made early on, relocating, for instance, the exhibition site out of the inner city and building the most modern fair complex in Europe in just three years. Countless buildings for trade, commerce and the service industry have appeared, and Leipzig is now the largest finance centre in Germany after Frankfurt, with more than 100 bank branches. Leipzig has always profited from its long tradition as a commercial and bourgeois city, home to trade fairs, and at the beginning of this century Saxony's metropolis was the second richest city in Germany. The restoration of prestigious buildings such as the Madlerpassage and Specks Hof became well-known, even industrial monuments found new users and also residential and cultural buildings attracted attention. This book looks critically at the current situation, providing an overview of more than 70 selected buildings.
