Erik Børresens allé 20
A new chapter in central Drammen
Onarheim is developing Erik Børresens allé 20 with plans for a hotel, homes and commercial premises. The ambition is to create a place that brings people, businesses and city life together—and builds lasting value.
About the property
New opportunities in Bragernes
Erik Børresens allé 20 is entering a new phase. Through rezoning and development, we aim to give the property new uses and a clear role in the city’s continued growth.
With a hotel, homes and commercial premises, we aim to foster urban life and interaction among those who live, visit and do business here.
The former courthouse and prison are entering a new chapter, guided by long-term ownership and development.
