Strider LongshanksJust opposite the hotel we're staying in is a former rail yard and shed. The shed has been converted into offices. Some of the tracks have been left and integrated into the new paving, while the tracks that led into the shed have been surrounded by a beautiful little urban garden, now very popular with bees. Presumably, someone from the municipality had this idea, and it seems to have been a success.

DoomsdaysCWHow our noisy world is seriously damaging our health
James Gallagher, March 15, 2025
Excerpt: "Dr Natalie Mueller, from the Barcelona Institute for Global Health, takes me for a walk around the city centre. We start on a busy road – my sound meter clocks in at over 80 decibels – and we head to a quiet tree-lined avenue where the noise is down to the 50s.
"But there is something different about this street – it used to be a busy road, but the space was given over to pedestrians, cafes and gardens. I can see the ghost of an old cross roads by the shape of the flowerbeds. Vehicles can still come down here, just slowly.
"Remember earlier in the lab, we found that some sounds can soothe the body.
"'It is not completely silent, but it's a different perception of sound and noise,' Dr Mueller says."

Stadt für Alle! Strategien der Aneignung stadtpolitischer Prozesse in Leipzig
In der wachsenden Stadt wird Teilhabe an den Prozessen der Stadtpolitik von vielen Menschen als immer wichtiger angesehen. Wachstum und Veränderungen werden insbesondere durch Bebauung und Versiegelung sichtbar. Im Leipziger Westen haben sich deshalb in den letzten Jahren einige neue Initiativen gegründet, die diese Teilhabe einfordern. In dieser Publikation sprechen wir mit ausgewählten zivilgesellschaftlichen Akteur:innen des Leipziger Westens und Ostens über ihre Erfahrungen mit der Teilhabe an stadtpolitischen Prozessen. Damit dokumentieren wir bereits gelaufene Verfahren und ermöglichen anderen zivilgesellschaftlichen Akteur:innen, aus den hier beschriebenen Erfahrungen und der gesammelten Expertise zu schöpfen, um den Leipziger Westen auch in Zukunft lebenswert zu gestalten. Es handelt sich dabei um eine Bestandsaufnahme dessen, was gegenwärtig als problematisch in der wachsenden Stadt wahrgenommen wird. Welche Konflikte gibt es zwischen Einwohner:innen und Stadtentwicklung? Welche Erfahrungen und Befürchtungen haben die Menschen im Leipziger Westen in Bezug auf Stadtentwicklung und klimatische Veränderungen? Wie sieht ein lebenswerter Leipziger Westen für sie aus? Die Interviews mit den verschiedenen Gruppen und Initiativen wurden im November 2024 geführt und stellen damit den Stand der Entwicklungen zu diesem Zeitpunkt dar. In einem eigenen Kapitel gehen wir auf das Erleben von Solastalgie ein. Gibt es dieses Gefühl in der wachsenden Stadt und, wenn ja, wie gehen wir damit um?Außerdem finden sich am Ende der Publikation eine kurze Anleitung zur Gründung einer Bürgerinitiative, weitere Möglichkeiten der Teilhabe sowie ein Glossar.
And another illustration not totally done yet for a book I'm making about the destruction of urban green spaces. This image is based on an interview with people whose backyard will be constructed on, their garden has already been destroyed. The tree cutters called the cops because a spontaneous protest had formed preventing them from doing what they were paid for. .

feliz#Mosses in the city can perfectly live together with human architecture. They should be cultivated wherever possible and not be seen as a sign of decay.
Here a nice example of thriving moss on an exhaust air vent of a university building.
