Massive renovations in the Westend Shopping Mall
The Westend food court will undergo a full renovation in the coming months. During the planning process, the shopping center paid special attention to ensuring that the area fulfills the function of a public space to a large extent after the transformation, while also reflecting the operator's consistent sustainability strategy and commitment to innovative solutions. The works are expected to end in July, but the restaurants of the high-traffic gastro space will continue to operate undisturbed during this time.
