City planning officer Rudolf Hillebrecht hired him in 1965 because he had a wide range of administrative knowledge and experience in public relations. His work influenced the way from the "Unterpflaster-Straßenbahn" to the light rail system as a cost-saving mixture of underground and tram . At Raschplatz he wanted a building ensemble like Marina City or Habitat 67 .
