What's the plan for residing in Neuwied?
Neuwied Hosts Citizen Workshop on the Future of Living
The city of Neuwied is inviting all residents, experts, and interested parties to participate in a citizen workshop titled "Future of Living in Neuwied" on August 20th, 2023. The event will take place at VHS Neuwied, Amalie-Raiffeisen-Saal, Heddesdorfer Str. 33, starting at 5:30 PM and is expected to end around 7:30 PM.
Mayor Peter Jung will welcome the guests personally, setting the stage for an engaging discussion on the future of housing development in Neuwied. The workshop is open to tenants, homeowners, investors, and interested citizens, providing a platform for everyone to share their ideas and perspectives.
The event is part of an ongoing housing development concept created by the city, InWIS Research & Consulting GmbH, and the Municipal Settlement Society (GSG). It features interactive theme stations for discussions on various key areas of intervention, including new housing forms and quality, urban space management, existing building development, affordable housing, and age- and disability-inclusive housing.
Prof. Dr. Torsten Böling from InWIS will provide expert input on current trends in the housing market and their implications for Neuwied. The collected inputs from the event will directly feed into the further concept development, ensuring that the voices of the community are heard and integrated into the planning process.
Neuwied's location within Rhineland-Palatinate and its evolving urban environment offer new opportunities primarily centered on modernizing existing structures, expanding sustainable living, and leveraging the town’s natural appeal and evolving urban infrastructure. Key areas of intervention include renovation and modernization of existing apartments and houses, sustainable and nature-integrated housing development, development in quiet suburbs and mixed-use areas, opportunities for community-focused housing, and addressing demographic changes by offering diverse housing options.
The workshop aims to answer questions about the future of housing in Neuwied and identify new opportunities and areas for intervention. Further information about the event can be found on the city's website at www.neuwied.de/wohnraumversorgungskonzept. No registration is required for the event, so everyone is encouraged to attend and contribute to the discussion.
- Encouraged by the upcoming event, participants can share their perspectives on the evolution of housing in Neuwied, focusing on home-and-garden design and modern lifestyle trends.
- The citizen workshop in Neuwied also offers a platform for discussing current residential development concepts, particularly in relation to urban space management and the promotion of sustainable living.
