Escher Wyss was formerly a part of Aussersihl municipality, which was incorporated into Zürich in 1893.
The quarter has a population of 2,727 distributed on an area of 1.27 km2 (1⁄2 sq. mile). It takes its name from the company Escher Wyss & Cie. that was formerly based in the area. The company's former Schiffbau, or shipbuilding hall, is now a theatre venue operated by the Schauspielhaus Zürich.
The Technopark Zürich site was built between 1989 and 1993 as the first large single building on the industrial site of the former Escher Wyss & Cie company, and triggered the overall planning of the 17-hectare site.[1]
