Foundation Stone Ceremony for NOC in Weiden, Germany

On the 25th November 2016 a foundation stone laying ceremony was held for the Chapman Taylor designed shopping centre in the heart of the city of Weiden in Bavaria, Germany. Several hundred representatives from business, politics and culture attended the ceremony, including a number of mayors' from surrounding cities.

In the course of the ceremony, the investor, Fondara, announced the name of the new shopping centre – “Nordoberpfalz Center” or in short “NOC”. The name stands for the regional significance of the shopping centre.

Being located in the centre of the Upper Palatinate's most important city, NOC will offer a modern retail environment for a large rural catchment area. The target group of about 300,000 people also includes customers from the western Czech Republic and from nearby US military bases.
