They were built relatively recently.
The Bavarian capital boasts not only the world’s best beer and reliable cars, but good modern housing. This may seem surprising, but in polutoramillionnom Munich you are unlikely to meet the neighborhoods with warrens and endless multi-storey buildings. In Germany love their citizens and not allow them to live in anthills (in Sweden and Denmark, as you may remember, too, reports the Chronicle.Ino with reference to fresher.ru
Today walk through the new areas and see what they build in Germany.
Let’s start with the neighborhood Parkfield Giesing. The word “Giesing” indicates the location within the ancient district, a “Parkviertel” is translated as “garden district”. Back in the 1970s, the authorities of Munich decided to reconstruct a number of areas Gizenga, but active development began in zero.
Parkfield Giesing underground station was built on the site of the former industrial area of Agfa. For some time there was a skyscraper, but then there was a preference for low-rise buildings and the creation of parks. Green area reaches 50,000 square meters, house is approximately 1000 apartments are surrounded by trees.
The house neat. No bright colors, no fancy facades.
Large balconies in every apartment that residents, of course, not glass, and in use.
Home average of 6-8 floors. This is the optimal number of floors for residential area.
The quality of construction is excellent.
Some houses are just 4 floors.
Interestingly, when German Newspapers describe a particular neighborhood, they always indicate not only the number of apartments, but the number of jobs that it provides. For example, in Parkville can work up to 1,000 people. It provides space for shops, cafes, bistros, medical offices and pharmacies. This means that the area will never be dead. The modern city has long abandoned the concept of a “bedroom” area.
What’s with the Parking? Parking underground or along the street perimeter of the block. The sidewalk, bike path, Parking.
Another car Park along the street.
Inside the area of cars, of course, can not be.
Only a pedestrian path, which in case of emergency can drive machinery. But the cars here there is no access at all.
Street inside the district
Here you can safely walk children and to be sure that the child is not hit by a car. Here you can go to work, you can meet with friends. Just look out the window and look at your yard.
Benches
This is the main track inside the quarter.
Between the houses are already more green space and paths less. All made very comfortable. The right kindergarten, to him we will return later.
Here is the yard on the approach to the entrance. This, of course, is completely incomprehensible to our man. How so? Only 4 (!!!) floor. Where parked in the entrance of the machine? Where condo and glazed balconies? Why a table with benches, because it will be bully to sit! But in Germany, it is normal contemporary courtyard.
Bike racks in front.
Please note on the pavement! Tiles WITH PERFECT SEAMS in the track. Parking tiles with large joints and grass, there should not go. For Parking – high grass. As all well made! Just sheer delight! I don’t understand why in Munich tourists not used to driving on the new areas.
One of the entrances
The first floors have access to the street. So now do everywhere in Europe.
The apartment in Giesing Parkfield are not cheap. A couple of years ago (perhaps still in the construction phase) it was possible to buy a home at a price of 5-6 thousand euros per square meter. Now two-bedroom apartment with a total area of 118 square meters with a terrace house built in 2014 will cost 1 million 259 thousand euros. It is more than 10 000 euros per square meter.
Here we have to remark that this is according to German standards, housing the middle class and slightly above. People here other salaries and opportunities for real estate purchase. And given adequate mortgage rates, in the end, the apartment in Germany will not be much more expensive than ours.
Many apartments are not sold, but rented out by developers or agencies to which they belong. The modest apartment one bedroom apartment area of 39 sq. meters) can be rented for EUR 604 per month. That’s not counting the fees for the garage (80€) and the utilities for the advance payment (EUR 150). It turns out, renting a small apartment in the new district will cost 834 euros. At the current exchange rate is almost 60 000. Water and electricity will most likely need to pay extra (agents this is not specified).
The most expensive apartment (4-room area of 126 sq. meters) would cost 1755 euros. With garage and communal (80 + 220 EUR) fee increases to 2055 € per month or 146 000 rubles. Rent prices in Moscow.
And this is kindergarten. Kindergartens are many and they are small. The gardens are doing either on the first floors of houses, or a separate building like here. But he’s still small. Readers are asked to note that children leave their bicycles just! Not even buckling. When I was shooting on the street was a family of Muslims (the women were in head scarves, men in robes). I did not take off, but immediately thought of what the gap pattern would be our propaganda. Horrible refugees, and kindergartens, and no the bike is not wearing a seat belt. As they all live in Germany?
And this is a school. School around here is landscaping.
Sometimes the children are released to walk in the city. Then they put on special vests.
One more kindergarten.
And this is the garden on the ground floor of one of the houses. He does for kids, it goes to only 20 people.
Move to the next area! Here built several 16-storey towers!
They stand in the middle of the block, entrance on machines to them, of course not. Around low-rise buildings.
About the same at home as in the previous district.
Architecture
Inside the block – only footpaths.
Another area. Again, Parking on the street only.
Inside of the block and only pedestrian walkways and public spaces.
Near the entrances of Bicycle Parking areas.
And another district. This Ackermannbogen. The name, probably unofficial, for the local is part of the West of Schwabing, so that each LCD then its name (if the name is not invented, it is used instead of just the address). Ackermannbogen nearby hill Olympiaberg and built on the site of the former military site. He’s a few years older than Parkfield, and not as homogeneous.
Parking
The Munich media praised the district for what he is “green, urban, and convenient for life”.
House all low rise.
Currently the district consists of four residential blocks and a total of 2250 includes apartments and about 1,000 jobs. Available apartments on sale practically there’s very rarely someone moves out.
Judging by the fact that the district write to the local newspaper, they say with one voice: “of Such neighbourhoods must be more, much more!”
Prices for 3 bedroom apartment in the area start at an average of 900 000 euros.
