Pläne Projekte Bauten Hamburg: Architektur und Städtebau in Hamburg 2005 bis 2015

Hamburg is changing, but its high standards of architecture remain – in the composition of the districts around the Außenalster and Binnenalster, in the Speicherstadt, the Wohnstadt Schumachers, the Alstertal and numerous other areas of the city. New opportunities are opening up through the restructuring of the thriving port district; attractive waterside areas are being reclaimed for the city and its inhabitants and a forward-looking ethos is informing their redevelopment. Conversion areas in the city centre are being geared to people and nature and creating positive living and working environments. Yet for all its variety the citys architecture still shuns populism to preserve its sense of place and history. This volume, published by Oberbaudirektor Jörn Walter is a testimony to this symbiosis of continuity and innovation. The book, rich in plans and illustrations, presents projects currently being planned or realized, among them the latest developments in the HafenCity.
