The new construction of the Wimhölzel-Hinterland residential complex in Linz’s Franckviertel is one of those construction projects that have sparked a lot of discussion in the recent past. Attention was paid to the history of the residential complex, which was built in the 1930s, as well as the fact that many residents feared that they would no longer be able to afford these affordable apartments. The municipal GWG wanted and wants to refute all of this after investigations made it clear that renovating the old buildings was no longer considered justifiable. That’s why the vote was taken to demolish and build a new housing estate with eight rows of buildings and a total of 430 apartments.
The first construction phase has now been completed and the first 101 apartments have been handed over to the tenants. 28 of these apartments were specially designed for age-appropriate living. According to GWG director Nikolaus Stadler, “quite a few” have moved from one of the old buildings to the new building.
The major project is expected to be completed in the next five years and 400 new apartments will be built in the Franckviertel. City councilor Dietmar Prammer spoke of an enrichment in his role as chairman of the GWG supervisory board: “Affordable, high-quality living space with modern standards is being created here, which not only increases the quality of living and life of the residents, but also enhances the Franckviertel.”
