The cost was contributed in one-third shares by the state of Schleswig-Holstein, the city of Kiel and the CITTI PARK shopping centre.

The former station building still exists and is used as a youth club operated by the city of Kiel.

Maschinenfabrik August G. Koch, a manufacturer of tank wagons was located at Kiel-Hassee station.

The heritage-listed workshop of the machinery factory, built in 1939/40, was demolished for the construction of the shopping centre.

The new station has two 160 metre-long side platforms, which can be reached via a pedestrian overpass connected by stairs and lifts.
