The table of land use shows that Neulindenau is roughly divided into three parts: industrial, agricultural and use of the area for residential purposes.
The industrial use is located in the south south of the Karl-Heine-Kanal and in the north-west in connection with the Dunckerviertel . The south is part of the former large industrial complex Lindenau-Plagwitz, which was built during the founding period, here with heavy machinery (Unruh & Liebig) and textile industry ( Leipzig cotton spinning mill ). Unruh & Liebig, the GDR period Kirov factory was after the German reunification to Kirow Ardelt GmbH , the world market leader for railway cranes . A cultural center developed on the site of the closed cotton spinning mill with Hall 14 , twelve galleries (including Eigen + Art ) and studios for around 100 artists (including Neo Rauch , Matthias Weischer and Tilo Baumgärtel ). The industrial area in the northwest with small and medium-sized businesses did not develop until after the Second World War .
The living area is fairly closed between Groitzscher and Bienerstraße, with the northern part, the Dunckerviertel, not being built until 1950 as the first residential complex in Leipzig after the Second World War.
The large allotment garden complex between the railway line and Saalfelder Straße appears in the table under agricultural use.
