Architectural Field Report from Hamburg Germany (1)

This place is off the hook. This is an image from the "Hafen City" project, a major revitalization project in an area of the harbor. Hamburg's sea port is the second largest in all of Europe and has a rich and long history to offer. This project is gigantic and is trying to create an urban landscape around an old port layout. Its goal is also to bring the varied and lively city closer to the river, yet. The finished areas of this "Hafen City" project is actually already full with people, unlike this image might suggest.
