"The aim of the proposal is to connect the inner city of Linz with the Southern districts through a new vibrant neighbourhood which will introduce productive, commercial, residential spaces as well as cultural and social services. What distinguishes our proposal is the belief that the future productive program is difficult to be foreseen today.
For this reason the project provides the maximum diversity in the spaces, allowing multiple and varied uses and users within the neighborhood, combining the typical ground floor productive spaces with a 8.000sqm new techno-hub and 6.000sqm of renewed industrial shed.
In this way young start-uppers will work side by side with larger international companies, new smart artisans with 4.0 industrialists providing the basis for a rich and differentiated productive ecosystem."
