The seaside town of Aspern (officially also Aspern Urban Lakeside , Project Name: Aspern - Vienna's Urban Lakeside ) is a property under construction in district 22  in Vienna district , Danube city , and one of the largest urban development projects of the 2010s. Over a period of around 20 years, a new district is to be built in which over 20,000 people will live and work. The first of three development phases will focus on the south of the district and should be completed in 2020.

location

Seestadt Aspern, Vienna

The Seestadt is about seven kilometers east of the city center, on the left bank of the Danube, on the edge of the Marchfeld .

The area is delimited as follows:

Location of the neighboring districts:
Hirschstetten Breitenlee

Lackenjöchl

Neuessling
Suburban settlement Neighboring communities Essling
Aspern

The City of Vienna puts the area of ​​Seestadt at around 240 hectares.

history

The area northeast of the historic village of Aspern in Marchfeld was named after an artificial lake in the middle of the development area.

On the former Aspern airfield , Vienna's airfield from the interwar period, Template: future / in 5 yearsaround 10,500 apartments for 20,000 people are to be built by 2028 . In addition, facilities for 15,000 office workplaces and 5,000 jobs in trade, science, research and education are to be created.

Wien 3420 Aspern Development  AG is responsible for development and exploitation , a real estate development company that was founded in December 2004 as a subsidiary of the Vienna Business Agency , a fund of the City of Vienna (73.6%), and the Federal Real Estate Company  (26.4%) . The planning takes place in agreement with the responsible municipal departments of the city administration and Wiener Linien , the transport company of the City of Vienna.

The term 3420 was formed from the arc second digits of the geographical location of the center of the 240 hectare project area: 48 ° 13 ′ 34 ″ north and 16 ° 30 ′ 20 ″ east. Since neighboring meridians at 48 ° latitude are only 2/3 of their original distance at the equator, the locations for which these GPS data apply to the second are approximately on a rectangle 31 m on a side in NS direction and 21 m in WO- Direction.

urban planning

The urban planning concept of the Seestadt is geared towards a mixture of functions, there should be no purely residential or commercial use. This is to avoid a dormitory city and to achieve continuous revitalization during the day. The master plan for the Seestadt was drawn up by the Swedish architect Johannes Tovatt and approved unanimously by the Vienna City Council on May 25, 2007 . Essential contents are the functional arrangement of uses and the spatial design of small and large urban planning gestures to form an overall urban concept.

Public room

The geographical center of the Seestadt is a five-hectare lake in a nine-hectare park. The lake is fed by groundwater. The public space - streets, squares and parks - takes up 50% of the total area of ​​this urban development area.

In order to make the public space attractive for the people who live and work in Seestadt, the Danish open space planner Gehl Architects from Wien 3420 AG and the municipal department 19 (architecture) created a planning manual for public space (a “Score of the public space”). The planning manual is based on the idea that public life is a precious commodity that needs to be concentrated. That is why Gehl Architects have worked out particularly important axes in Seestadt: the Ringstrasse as the main traffic axis, which has been given the name Sonnenallee , the Rote Saite (shopping street, culture), the Blaue Saite (Seepark and promenade) and the Green Saite (green areas, local recreation areas) .

By 2015, three parks with a total area of ​​eight hectares had been built, the central Seepark , the Yella-Hertzka-Park and the Hannah-Arendt-Park (groundbreaking May 26, 2014). The traffic-calmed streets around the latter are called Hannah-Arendt-Platz.

Construction phases

The Seestadt Aspern is to be built Template: future / in 5 yearsin three stages by 2028:

  • Stage 1 (2009 to [obsolete] 2017): The development company Wien 3420 Aspern Development  AG builds the green spaces and the technical infrastructure (roads, canals, etc.) and thus provides the impetus for the development of the Seestadt. In the first large-scale expansion in the south-western part of Seestadt, a mixed quarter is being created with approx. 2,600 residential units, offices, trading and service companies as well as research and development facilities. The large volume is intended to ensure local supply and the desired mix of uses right from the start. In October 2013, the Aspern Nord underground stations on the northern edge of the area and Seestadt as the terminus of the U2 line in the south were opened. This stage also includes the establishment of an R&D park (research and development). The first impulse project is an innovation quarter (technology center), for which a realization competition has been started. With the aspern IQ , the first core settlement was created in 2012. In September 2014 the first apartments were handed over to the owners and tenants. At Hannah-Arendt-Platz, 18 residential units were handed over to members of the “JAspern” construction group, who, among others, helped plan the apartment block with architect Fritz Oettl from the start. In 2015, further assembly houses were moved into here, followed in 2017 with Que [e] rbau, the first queer assembly house in Vienna.
  • Stage 2 (2017 to 2022): The Aspern Nord train station and the connection with the A 23 motorway through a high-performance city road and the S 1 spline are completed. Further residential and mixed quarters (including assembly projects) and the station and office district are being built.
  • Stage 3 (from 2022): Areas adjacent to the train station, the shopping street and the subway line will be further concentrated, the mix of uses will be further improved.

Others

The district was officially named "Seestadt" for the first time in September 2008.

The tallest wooden house in the world to date was built in 2016–2019 ( HoHo Vienna ).

A test run for autonomous electric buses has been taking place in Seestadt since June 6, 2019.

Street names

Since streets named after women are severely underrepresented in Vienna, the City of Vienna has been naming traffic areas after women since the beginning of the 21st century. This trend is particularly noticeable in Seestadt Aspern, where 20 streets were named after women by the beginning of 2017:

A rare exception from a male namesake for new traffic areas in the Seestadt is Nelson-Mandela -Platz, another exception is the Kuttelwascherweg, named after the couple Mina and Otto Kuttelwascher. In addition, with the Yella-Hertzka -Park, the Madame-d'Ora -Park and the Hannah-Arendt-Park, three parks in the Seestadt are named after women.

Cultural and media

On February 15, 2014, the art event Kranensee - a ballet of cranes took place on the construction site of the Seestadt Aspern . Some of the 42 tower cranes built at that time and a concrete pump were equipped with different colored headlights that shone to specially composed orchestral music, 15 cranes were manned by crane operators who rotated the booms to match the music.

Seestadt Aspern is the setting for the crime novel Seestadt by Fritz Lehner , published in 2016 .

The artist Reinhold Zisser adapted an emergency church from the post-war period (the provisional predecessor of the Glanzingen parish church ), which had been moved from Döbling to Donaustadt as an "emergency gallery". It was moved again in 2017 and until further notice is located on an artificial hill opposite the Aspern-Nord station.
