In 2001 Helena Casanova and Jesús Hernández won Europan 6 in Groningen. The first phase of construction was completed in 2012. A mortar depot first needed to be relocated and subsequently the economic crisis and the slump in market demand severely hampered further progress.  The project was named De Stadswerf and is a part of the city that is open-ended because the full plan is not yet completed. The first phase of construction comprises 84 housing units including the apartment building.
