2:27 '"Aspern Seestadt" Translates to "urban lakeside"' That's news to me and I live there. Aspern is the name of the municipality and derives from the aspen tree. Seestadt is just a compound word (they're common in German) of See (lake) and Stadt (city)

@@flym0 Seestadt is a descriptive name. There's nothing wrong with that and it's not really some marketing BS, unless you consider the central artificial lake marketing BS as well. As said around 1:15, Vienna is a growing and there are multiple large development projects around the City. Aspern (the municipality of which Seestadt is a part of) itself has wildly changed over the last 10 years as well. With tons of new apartment buildings (it used to be villagey and quite suburban (still is) before). There are a couple of reason's for this population growth, including rising urbanization in the country, high quality of living as well as rising international prospects.

there's plants who grow incredibly fast like the wisteria. We have one, it grows often 1 meter a month, loses his leaves in Winter, so sun can come in. It's incredibly good at providing shade, grows in thin, bendable ways, so you can lead the plant anywhere you want. It could shade huge areas within 2-5 years.

It isn't more hot than anywhere else where there's lots of asphalt and little greenery. At the lake it isn't as hot, for example. The argument for so little greenery in the centre of the Seestadt was that they wanted it all to be barrier-free, means that disabled people can get everywhere with ease. Also greenery costs more to take care of especially if every square centimeter is used as a toilet for dogs... like it's sadly often the case with greenery in urban settings. On the other hand when the dog has to pee they have to pee they don't wait until you reached a convenient place... 🤷🏻‍♀️ They could've done better with the green areas and bothered with the thought "but what if it gets hot" because in most apartments you aren't even allowed to just build in an AC as you please, you have to her a permission to do that. And if everyone had an AC, that would cause problems because they need so much electricity...

@@gebys4559 yeah, smart land planning is the secret sauce to the affordability of vienna. The city has a land fund that plans ahead more than 20 years, so they can keep speculators from snatching up property and making construction more costly. The "dark" side of this is that it only works because the same party has been in power for as long as democracy existed in vienna, and there is a good chance that things would start breaking down if politicians actually had to try to win elections with more short sighted selling points.

"City Within a City" sounds kinda misleading to my ears, as the Seestadt is not within the city really, but forms one of its very outskirts. In fact, it's absurdly far away from the city proper for this place in which you can get basically anywhere within 30 minutes maximum most of the time(I still don't know how Vienna does this, it's magical. Probably the excellent public transportation).

Vienna’s a really interesting one. It was my home for a year, I often revisit, and I researched Viennese history for a while. It’s interesting that the population has, until relatively recently, been lower that it was during Habsburg rule. So for much of the 20th century, it was surprisingly spacious. Interesting to watch how the city is planning for a new era! (Also a friend of mine, who’s a sleepy drunk, kept falling asleep on Line U2 and waking up in Seestadt when it was still a terminus in the middle of nowhere. Thought it was pretty hilarious at the time)

It was not really spacious, it was just so that up to WW1 often 2 working class Families lived in one 30 sqm Flat, one sleeping in the Night, working in the day, the other one sleeping during the Day working in the Night. This changed in the 1920s when the social Democatic- City government built hundrets of thousands of communal Apartments, the so called „Gemeindebauten“. Those are still owned by the City of Vienna. Today 500.000 People live in those Buildings, Rent is affordable. This is a big reason why there is not much poverty and and social Conflict in Vienna.

Yep, a huge reason for their success is the fact they haven't had to keep up with population growth for decades. Here are some other cool facts I learned while living there: Vienna was designed to hold 2 million people pre-world war I. It was one of the fastest growing cities in Europe and the center of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire. After its collapse, the population plummeted and it wasn't until the 90s and early 00s did Vienna hit 2 million. This means the city wasn't planning catch up like 98% of cities around the world are. Vienna was also supposed to get rid of a lot of its train and tram lines through the city during the 60s and the height of the car epidemic. However, the council was so corrupt that they couldn't make any decisions and the movement towards cars failed. This has worked out beautifully for them nowadays. Lastly, due to most of its buildings being built before 1900s, they are all considered historical. The government ended up buying a lot of these buildings as private landlords couldn't afford to keep the beautiful mosaics and designs maintained. This led to the city of Vienna owning 80% of all apartments. Thus, rent has been cheap and they have extreme power over land, unlike most cities.

Oh, I quite agree, Markus (I was being a little simple to keep it brief). And of course, ‘rotes Wien‘ and its long legacy has a really important role to play. But the post-Habsburg population collapse does make Vienna something of an interesting case, if you measure it against other European capitals of the time!

It's fairly unpopular in Vienna actually. At least in online communities and on tabloids. Most people who live here, including myself seem to like it though. A valid critique is that they say they're so green and eco conscious, but there's a lot of asphalt and little space for plants, especially in the block where the subway station is, which is the first thing most vitsitors see. To be fair they're doing something against that, and you don't have to go far to find parks and even a small forest, but it's still a bit weird.

„New Standards“: the city of Vienna wants to build a highway to Seestadt (called Stadtstraße) to link it to the Highway A23 and to the planned Highway S1, which should go under a National Park (Donau-Auen) and the Danube. The city of Vienna can only build the northern piece of Seestadt if the highway S1 is built. They wrote it down in the environmental impact assessment (UVP)...

@@fischX Simple: it exacerbated climate change.

Not building one road because of a few shrubs or something to facilitate the use of already extant cars on the road is only going to make for a shittier commute for everyone (busses use roads, too, and congested traffic creates more emissions than free-flowing traffic).

@Anel Zukic Well, you stated the obvious and yet it skips everyone's head anyway. The takeaway is, nobody likes the look of the architecture so how the f do they get away with building it at that cost? it looks like a preschoolers cut out paper project, along the way he ran out of white paper and decided to use blue or grey.. my only hope is future generations demo them asap. Likely they will fall apart in 4 decades like the other commy blocks built in the 70s Globally too! We even have them in the ex small hat locales in Cape Town.

I agree. If this had grown organically, in quick increments (as did Kowloon), one could understand the visual chaos. Apparently, though, they started with a big blank space, and filled it with THAT - on purpose. The lake COULD HAVE BEEN any shape. There are so many beautiful, intriguing, interesting shapes from which to choose. (quatrefoil and trefoil, for example - or a simple oval) Instead, they generated a form which cannot be comprehended. The lake looks like the flooded ruin of a factory or railyard. The layout of streets and buildings, is similarly discordant and baffling. One is reminded of what one sees, toward the end of the school year, at schools of architecture. I'd assumed that those nascent architects, once they had access to the tools and teams present in today's architectural firms, went on to help shape projects which did NOT look like the product of youthful poverty, sleepless nights, and professors intolerant of beauty. I was wrong. Apparently, those Architecture grads go on to make whole districts every bit as chaotic and ugly as their thesis projects.

Having lived in the Seestadt for a couple months two years ago, I really fell in love with Vienna and the concept of this development. While it could use a bit more green, it really does a lot of things right other urban development projects don't manage to achieve - like great access by public transport, local infrastructure, density and architecture (no street corner looks like the other, making it really interesting to just walk around and explore it). Also, there's nothing like coming home from work and taking a swim three minutes from your flat and the subway. I'm really looking forward to visiting again in a couple of years.

Really well made, thank you. What I did not hear, but is very important, is the Viennese way of getting affordable living space all over the city. So, as in all newer built (since a few years by law) living spaces, there is a big number of social, affordable spaces. So it´s always a mixture of cheeper social, privately rent and owned living spaces mixed into one area. Like in this "Seestadt" project. That´s what makes my City so great. "Poor" and "rich" live side by side. That´s an overstatement, but I think you get the point. Best wishes from Vienna!

The buildings in min.1:13 is the residential park Alterlaa, another building complex in Vienna built in the 1970s. Every tourist gets shown the inner city and the palace Schönbrunn but I can really recomment to take a look at the Seestadt Aspern and the Muth, a modern theather, too. Thank you so much!

This concrete jungle of buildings too tall and bulky, coupled with this cheerful video looks like the start of a dystopian movie where they show you the first days of the ghetto where the main character lives before everything went sour....

Vienna is my second favorite city in Europe, after Prague. Many fond memories of my 3 visits there. LOVE seeing the solar on the roofs!!

Lovely :-) There is an intriguing project in Prague, too, and this one is really in the middle of the city: the area around Masaryk Station. It is supposed to be the last project of Zaha Hadid (although I believe it's simply a desing delivered by her studio).

Positive effects of urban planning aside, this looks absolutely gruesome and drab, more like an alien invader force command center than a comfy living space. Can anyone say with a straight face that this will not look horribly outdated and dilapidated in two decades or even less?

It already looks outdated and dilapidated. It looks like somebody's thesis project, from the 1990s - or the 1970s ...a thesis project that's been sitting in an attic, somewhere - and silverfish have eaten the model's spray-painted green moss "trees".

Thanks for the great video! A new "skyline" is currently being built along the Danube Canal in Vienna. Some of them have built in interesting technical building systems, such as the use of river heat and river cooling. Maybe it's worth a video too. Best regards!
