The Alsterarkaden in Hamburg, named after the architectural concept arcade (Latin arcus: arch), go back to designs by Alexis de Chateauneuf for the Hamburg city hall market to be rebuilt. The construction was executed until 1843 in the course of the former Vogelswalls, the five-storey houses behind it developed in the following years until 1846.
The Hamburg Rathaus is the Rathaus—the city hall or town hall—of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, Germany. It is the seat of the government of Hamburg and as such, the seat of one of Germany's 16 state parliaments. The Rathaus is located in the Altstadt quarter in the city center, at the Rathausmarkt square, and near the lake Binnenalster and the central station. Constructed from 1886 to 1897, the city hall still houses its original governmental functions with the office of the First Mayor of Hamburg and the meeting rooms for Hamburg's parliament and senate (the city's executive).
