With the city of Berlin selling out more public property, the most vulnerable groups of Berliners are being pushed outside the inner city, endangering the influence the city's creative culture that gives the city its identity. A prototypical concept of turning an unoccupied former administrative complex in the heart of Berlin into mixed-use, affordable housing is raising the bar for how we regenerate neighborhoods in ways that are equitable, sustainable and accessible to the local community. The project is coming to life through a collective effort of public actors and civic activists, and serves as a pilot project for how other cities can regenerate with their local communities in mind.
Leona Lynen is a Berlin-based city-maker and member of the ZUsammenKUNFT collective, advocating for cooperation between civil society and administration in order to co-create a different quality of the city. Leona has worked in Berlin and across continents as project lead, researcher and curator for several Goethe-Institutes, urban think tanks and the Federal Institute for Spatial Development.

reSITE is an international platform connecting people and ideas to improve the urban environment. We work at the intersection of architecture, urbanism, politics, culture, and economics.
We feature thought leaders whose work pushes the boundaries on how we build, design, regenerate and create life in cities, and frame them through many lenses, convening them in one place. We act as a catalyst for social action and innovative leadership. We encourage an exchange of ideas about making cities more livable, competitive, and resilient. We protect and promote public space, architecture, and sustainable development in cities.
All to make our cities more livable, competitive, resilient, inclusive, mobile, and designed with humans in mind.
