as "Allgemeine k.k. private Boden-Credit Anstalt", administered the

turned into a barracks for the Vienna Schutzkorps troops and later for 
the National Socialists. After 1945 it was used by the NEWAG (Lower 
Austria Energy Board, now EVN), from 1962 it was used by the 
provincial government of Lower Austria and later by the Federal 
Ministry for Science and Transport.
