Reduced Noise Environment
The city of Düsseldorf is set to reimagine its Old Harbor (Alter Hafen) as a harmonious blend of tranquil and lively areas, with the redesign process promising to be transparent and inclusive.
Mayor Stephan Keller and Deputy Mayor Cornelia Zuschke have presented ideas for the upgrade and redesign of the Old Harbor, envisioning a metropolis that balances the energy of the bustling Old Town with quieter, more contemplative spaces.
These plans, according to Zuschke, have garnered enthusiasm, with approximately 80 participants contributing to the initial workshop discussions. The further development of Düsseldorf's city center, she adds, is driven by this energy.
Prof. Benedikt Stahl from the architectural firm Kuess den Frosch has presented various visualizations demonstrating the design possibilities for the Old Harbor. These visualizations show the potential integration of green spaces, blooming trees, water-bound pathways, and wooden platforms, creating a picturesque and inviting waterfront.
The redesign process will involve public engagement, with a pop-up participation event planned for Düsseldorf residents to give feedback on the proposed changes. This event is one of several opportunities for public input, with further specification, deepening, and public discussion expected to follow.
The Old Harbor is being considered as a building block in a chain of "quiet places" in Düsseldorf, providing residents with much-needed spaces for relaxation and reflection amidst the city's vibrant life.
