Science City Hamburg Bahrenfeld
Life & Living

Science and sustainable quality of life are the common thread running through Science City Hamburg Bahrenfeld. In addition to a new generation campus and a tailor-made environment for science-related companies, diverse neighborhoods with highly attractive residential areas, green open spaces and a sustainable mobility concept are also being created. Thousands of new apartments in a variety of forms are being created in the "quarters at Volkspark", which are open to researchers, teachers and students as well as everyone else. There will also be places for education and care, sport and leisure as well as local amenities. The lively whole will be connected to the historic Volkspark Altona and other landscape axes.

Some people are standing by a small pond, others are interacting with alpacas and ponies. On the left-hand side of the picture there is a playground with a slide. The scenery conveys a natural and family-friendly environment.

Neighborhood development

Ideas for a better life of tomorrow are developed here - right from the planning stage for future-oriented neighborhoods that combine resource-saving construction, sustainable mobility and social interaction

Citizen participation

Through close citizen participation Science City is designed with everyone for everyone for all. Numerous event offerings enable active participation.

"In the coming decades, Science City Hamburg Bahrenfeld will be one of Hamburg's largest and most important urban development projects, where research, university teaching and young companies will merge with new residential areas and existing neighborhoods. This will create a completely new urban space with affordable housing, modern leisure and shopping facilities and an excellent social infrastructure."
