Heidelberg has sold the Print Media Academy building across the street from the town’s central station. Although the glass and steel structure was somewhat symbolic – it may ultimately be seen as a re-enactment of a heavy metal fantasy that went awry as the demand for sheetfed offset presses declined over the past two decades. It is reported that the building is sold to a Luxembourg-based investment company for a low double-digit million Euro sum. The erstwhile owners will continue to lease some office space in a building in a prime location that must have been expensive to build and maintain.
