Berliners clearly speak out against the development of the Tempelhofer Feld!
Berlin, Deutschland - The former Tempelhof Airport, which now serves as a popular local recreation area, is again the focus of urban planning. Many Berliners already use the extensive terrain for roller skates and inline journeys. But in the recent past, an intensive discourse on the future of Tempelhofer Feld has developed, especially as part of an architecture ideas competition, which finally produced six winning concepts from 164 submitted designs. As nd currently reports the winning project for preserving the preservation of Existing structures and thus prevent comprehensive development.
During the presentation in Berlin-Mitte, led by urban development senator Christian Gaebler and Senate construction director Petra Kahlfeldt, the concepts were presented and immediately attracted great media interest. Gaebler emphasized that it was important to openly discuss the suggestions and not to draw hasty conclusions. However, it should be emphasized that four of the six award -winning designs completely reject development and instead rely on the preservation and further development of the existing uses. These approaches also seem to be supported by the population, which showed up in the third dialogue workshop, in which over 275 citizens who were sustained participated. Even among the 80s there was a majority of signatures against a development.
The six winning concepts
of the six award -winning designs are particularly worth mentioning:
- some place studio : maintenance and further use of the existing building fabric with new ideas such as a nursery and sperm bank.
- BBZ Landscape architects : Creation of a "Park of the 21st Century", which would offer various zones for sports and relaxation.
- room laboratory : long -term cultural transformation until 2050 and an open area for education and culture.
- Franz Reschke Landscape architecture : concept with thematic forest groves and open meadow balconies.
- de Zwarte Hond/Grieger Harzer Dvorak : From the planning of new apartments on the southwestern edge, only an S-Bahn station for a better connection can be expected.
- Schønherr : ecological conversion with additional living space, but primarily on the edge of the field.
None of the concepts provide for a residential development for the eastern side of the Tempelhofer Feld. Instead, the planners focus on a harmonious integration of nature and existing structures, which is perceived as very positive in the current debate.
Citizen participation and the look into the future
The citizens are increasingly concerned that a change in the law could be rebuilt of the field. Since the referendum in May 2014, which was to protect the Tempelhofer Feld as an undeveloped area, it has been wrestled for its use and preservation. The BUND Berlin, represented by Managing Director Tilmann Heuser, expressed concerns about the perspective of some government fractions on the field as a potential building area.
On September 27, 2024, the start of the largest participation process for the development of Tempelhofer Feld is also annoyed. The planning is not only dependent on the financial support of around three million euros by the Berlin Senate. In September, the concepts in other dialogues are to be discussed intensively by the public. Through events, such as the talks on September 14, 2024, an attempt is made to further promote the citizens' dialogue and to intensify the exchange in order to set the course for the future of Tempelhofer Feld.
