After having just toured the old Mountain Lodge for the special event Airlift Frankfurt – Berlin with special guest Col. Halvorsen (Ret.), I had the chance to take some photos showing the new plans for the future apartment building.
The southern side will get a terrace.
The advertisement offers 10 luxurious apartments varying in size and style between 100 qm and 260 qm. Due to its unique location and many added amenities, the price per qm is euro 4.250.
There is the view, albeit through a rain splattered window, onto the neighborhood.
Parking will be available on the north side of the building. The investor has purchased the plot of land across from it and this will be turned into carports and a parking lot.
Yes, if I had the money, I would be interested in purchasing one of the apartments. They are supposed to be finished by the end of 2014.
I lived at Camp King in the mid 60’s .. there is a group that gathers each year that are called “Camp King Kids” … Spy Kids. I spent a good amount of time at the Taunis (sp?) Mountain Lodge. My father was the commander from 1965 to 1967.
The Kinderhaus (Camp King archive) holds, among many other things, a big private collection of old files (newspaper clippings and photos) a German had kept. He had been working at Camp King until retirement and this collection is priceless. I am sure it includes photos of your father as well.
I will have a look. If I find something interesting, I’ll take some photos and send them to you.
