Design of a multigenerational square

In Wuppertal's inner city district of Elberfelder Nordstadt the redevelopment is initiated and supported with commitment from the residents. In a creative participation process with art and cultural campaigns and joint festivals, various age and resident groups have become active in the urban neighbourhood. In this way, solutions have been found for the centrally located, old-fashioned Schusterplatz, which sustainably turn the square into a meeting place for young and old.
