Hamburg TV Tower Owner's Latest Building Permit Application Unveiled

Building owner files additional construction proposal for TV tower - TV Broadcaster Submits Additional Application for Tower Permit

Get ready, Hamburg! The owner of your beloved Leisure Tower, Deutsche Funkturm GmbH (DFMG), based in Münster, has been at it again. They've submitted another building permit application for the long-awaited renovation of this iconic landmark, now teasing a potential future return for eager visitors.

Back in April, DFMG already threw a hat in the ring with a building permit application for a smashing new entrance building. Now they're just twiddling their thumbs, awaiting the verdict from the building authority with bated breath. As a DFMG spokesperson put it, "We're just not sure when we can expect the big green light."

This beloved architectural gem, fondly known as Tele-Michel, graced St. Pauli district in 1968. After a 20-year absence, this angel of leisure has been tucked away, much to the dismay of locals and tourists alike. The initial plan had it back in action by 2023, but alas, delays have turned an indefinite date into our reality.
