Dispute over the third place: what will become of the Sinnleffer building?

Dispute over the third place: what will become of the Sinnleffer building?

In Remscheid it is bubbling: The future of the former Sinnleffer fashion house is on the brink! For years, politicians have been discussing what is to be created here- a new meeting point for all generations that is supposed to lure with leisure and cultural offers. But opinions differ: Should the adult education center attract people or the city library? This question could be debated on Thursday, October 31 at 5:30 p.m.

The city administration plans to buy the unused property and to transform it into a “third place” in the next five to seven years. It remains to be seen whether this should be done in the existing building or in a new building. CDU parliamentary group leader Markus Kötter demands that the city library must receive contemporary rooms here. He criticizes the idea of using the adult education center as an "anchor" as "complete nonsense". Remscheider politics will continue to deal with the discussion about the sensible use of the location, while the citizens are eagerly awaiting developments. Further information can be found here .
