In 2000, the improvement of an old industrial area of a sugar refinery was the beginning of Sugar City.

The two sugar silos were completely new designed und are nowadays used as offices and show rooms. Meanwhile, the old factory building serves as a location for various events, and furthermore, 56 companies are located. Further planned objects are an outlet, a hotel and a super market.

In December 2007, the reconstruction measures of the two silos into offices were completed. In 2014/2015, a bridge, which connects both towers, was built. The bridge is constructed of four point-fixed insulating glass sheets <link _blank internal link in current>TG-THERM^®plus, each measuring 3,618 x 2,670 mm.
