In 1990, DSB closed and sold their repair facilities to Aarhus Municipality and in 1997 the sports organization of DGI bought the building.

A new house was built in front of the old repair facilities and it connects to a fourth building which contains reception, café, conference rooms and a commercial wellness shop on 110 m².

In August 2007 DGI-huset was expanded with fitness and spinning facilities in the two bottom floors of the neighboring Baumann House which originally contained the train repair yard offices.

The renovation in 2003 was carried out by the construction company NCC by drawings from the architect firms Schmidt Hammer Lassen and 3XN while Rambøll was the leading engineer on the project.

The renovation also preserved the raw, industrial look of the buildings - visible support structures, large skylights and naked brick walls.
