What is "ceresbyen"

CeresByen (English: CeresCity) is a neighborhood in the district Midtbyen in the city of Aarhus, Denmark. The neighborhood is a planned mixed use community developed on a former industrial site which was rezoned in 2008. CeresByen is delimited by the streets Thorvaldsensgade, Silkeborgvej, Dollerupvej and Ceres Allé. The name references to the former Ceres Brewery which previously inhabited the site since the 1850s for over 150 years.

The area will be characterized by densely situated buildings, high-rises and large park along the Aarhus River. Architecturally the area will be modern while taking into account the proximity of Den Gamle By, the historic 19th century buildings of the Ceres Brewery and the Ceres Park along the river. The Ceres Panorama residential building will be one of the tallest in the city when construction is done.
