project is covered by a start-up report adopted by the City of Copenhagen, naming the area Bådehavnsgade Syd. The plan is to build 73,000 sq m housing, i.e. a mix of owner-occupied, rented and non-profit social housing, with construction expected to take place in three stages from 2026 to 2028. Sydhavn has become a highly popular residential location, reflected in brisk residential newbuilding activity in recent years. The residents of the district now experience even better access to central Copenhagen because of the metro extension to København Syd. In 2018, the bridge of Alfred Nobels Bro, connecting Tegl holmen and Enghave Brygge, opened for pedestrians/ cyclists. In 2024, it opened for car traffic as well, effec tively linking Sluseholmen to the south with Kalvebod Brygge to the north. In addition, March 2025 saw further progress in the plan to establish a new cycle bridge between Enghave Brygge and Islands Brygge, which will benefit the district and its residents. Most of the district will likely be fully developed within the next 5-7 years. Nordhavn The Nordhavn district comprises the Østre Gasværk site, Søndre Frihavn, Marmormolen and Nordhavn (the north harbour) proper, which enjoys an attractive waterfront location just north of the Copenhagen city centre with easy access to Nordhavn station. In the past, Nordhavn was predominantly home to a large part of the city’s harbour-related industries, but today they only take up roughly half of the area. Since redevel Nordhavn

At the square of Mozarts Plads, a joint venture of Nrep and AG Gruppen has developed Køhlers Have, offering 384 residential units, two small retail units and a parking basement. Letting activity has been brisk, and less than six months after completion, the joint venture sold the property to Finnish investor CapMan. Enghave Brygge is largely fully developed, except for an area at Enghave Brygge South. The area was owned by By & Havn, but they have now sold their 97,000 sq m building rights to AP Pension. AP Pension expects to build 1,000 residential units, 320 of which will be non-profit social housing. The project is scheduled for completion in 2030. Molestien is another part of the district that is still under development, located between Sluseholmen and the railway tracks in the old part of Sydhavn. In 2021, the Copenhagen City Council adopted a local plan allowing for newbuilding for residential use as well as service industries, including liberal professions, restaurants, shops, hotels, etc. Currently, Dansk Metal is working on the Sydporten project, which involves the construction of 633 residential units, with the first stage scheduled for occupancy in 2024. Some of the units are designated for student housing and assisted living for seniors, while the rest are family homes. In addition, areas for businesses, daycare centres and parking will be built. The completed family homes are fully let, as are the student housing units. In addition to Dansk Metal's project, in 2024 Squaremeter and Nrep joined forces on a development project in the southern part of Bådehavnsgade. The
