Leipzig’s green space structure is characterized by an extensive floodplain forest which intrudes deep into the city forming its modern and historic parks: a framework which is designed as a ring and radial green system. Leipzig has several different approaches, guidelines and concepts which deal with the various aspects of urban green. There is a need, however, to incorporate these into a strategic blueprint for the overall city strategy. Leipzig’s pilot project area is located on the edge of prefabricated housing complexes built in the 1980s for about 20.000 residents. The Green Bow Paunsdorf is situated between former army barracks, allotment garden areas and several housing estates which were built in the 1990s. This improves the existing green spaces and provides recreational and leisure facilities for the residents, especially for young people. An outdoor meeting point for teenagers has been implemented, with their support.
