In the recent past, Zurich-West was a popular destination for art, design, architecture, and food, making it a trendy district sought out by restaurants and other establishments. The abandoned buildings have slowly been converted from their history as industrial quarters to designer boutiques, market halls, offices, apartments, and trendy bars and cafes.

There are also many art studios and venues where visitors will be sure to find some stunning contemporary pieces to take back with them. Visitors will enjoy exploring the unique architecture and seeing how the vast spaces have now been transformed. One particular attraction is the 126-meter-high Prime Tower, which is the tallest building in Zurich.
