Fell on the sidewalk – It’s still unclear who owns the 8-meter sign

The eight-meter-high sign that crashed onto a sidewalk from the parking garage of the Passage City Center Linz on Tuesday from a height of about ten meters has mutated into the unloved “falling fruit”. On Wednesday it was still unclear who the actual owner of the decrepit, now badly dented construction is.

It happened on Tuesday at noon. According to eyewitnesses, the eight-meter high sign above the parking garage of the Passage City Center broke off the wall, slowly tilted forward and fell down. Luckily no one was walking on the sidewalk below. The advertising construction made of metal and plastic hit the asphalt and remained there deformed. “We received a call that something had fallen off the facade. We immediately went on a search with in-house technicians and the security service,” says Julia Kretz, center manager of the Passage. “That’s the most important thing, everything else will be clarified,” says Kretz, whose lawyers are now checking who is responsible for the sign “, emphasizes Michael Huber from RLB, the lessee of the parking garage: “The house was sold to the center operator in 2019.”
