In the night from 08.06. to 09.06., we set fire to a wheel loader and a power distribution box on the construction site in Braunschweiger Straße 21. The driver’s cab of the wheel loader burned out completely, the power distribution box was damaged so significantly that it is no longer functional. After the Edeka was demolished, the vacant site there was occupied by a neighborhood initiative in 2019 and transformed into a beautiful place to gather and network.
But after only two months, the newly created neighborhood garden was destroyed by construction workers and security guards, the area was cleared and thus another uncommercial and social meeting place was razed to the ground. Instead, the construction of a fortress of unaffordable micro-apartments/luxury apartments is now planned there, which will significantly advance gentrification in the neighborhood.
The owner of the area was for a long time Myn 3rd Vermögensverwaltung GmbH and thus ultimately Sanus AG, which is also the owner of Køpi and Køpiplatz. In 2020, the area was passed on to Cresco Immobilien Verwaltungs GmbH by means of some dubious deal. However, Sanus continues to present itself in its portfolio as the project/building developer for the luxury buildings.
Køpiplatz is about to be evicted. With this action we show solidarity with Køpiplatz. As long as this and other projects are threatened, we will continue to attack all actors and their objects that want to take away our free spaces in a brutal way.
Against the sellout of the city – Against any eviction!
Give the spaces to those who use them – For a city from below!
Solidarity with Køpi, Potse, R94, Wagenplatz Mollies, solidarity with all militant neighborhood initiatives!
