Seecarré in Aspern: The future of living is diverse and sustainable!
On the northwestern shore of Lake Aspern, a new, promising residential project, the Seecarré district, is being built that is intended to sustainably improve the quality of life in Vienna. As already stated in a press release from OTS was announced, the architecture and property developer competitions for the development of the district have been successfully completed. The various designs can be seen in the aspern Seestadt art space until June 28th, where they are likely to attract great interest from the public.
The opening of the exhibition will take place with prominent guests such as district manager Ernst Nevrivy and the representatives of WIEN 3420, Robert Grüneis, as well as Dieter Groschopf from Wohnfonds Wien. Vice Mayor Kathrin Gaál emphasized the importance of social housing and made it clear that Seecarré will offer affordable housing with a high quality of living and comprehensive infrastructure. This means that the district will be of crucial importance not only for existing but also for future generations.
Sustainable urban planning in focus
The Seestadt has now developed more than a third of its area. The focus is on climate-friendly urban planning, which not only conserves resources but also promotes a healthy living environment. This approach is in line with global trends that focus on sustainable urban development, because according to UN forecasts, up to 70% of the world's population will have to live in urban areas by 2050. Urban spaces must be tailored to the needs of their residents and address challenges such as climate change and social justice.
The construction work in the Seecarré is designed to be varied and offers the use of the “aspern klimafit” building standard as well as its own anergy network. In order to ensure mobility, a tram line 25 will connect the district to Vienna's existing transport network.
