Growing Leopoldau

Growing Leopoldau – an “edible 15-minute neighborhood” – positions urban agriculture as a driving force for a walkable and climate-resilient urban model. Food production, community gardens, and local cycles are integrated into the urban fabric, creating a productive and socially vibrant neighborhood.

This transformation is driven by the redesign of streets into shared, green, and productive spaces. The focus is on pedestrians and cyclists, while simultaneously strengthening public life. Complemented by blue-green infrastructure and targeted redensification, a networked system of services and destinations emerges that are accessible within short distances.

The result is a productive 15-minute neighborhood where food, public space, and urban life are closely intertwined.
