Hamburg Picks Community‑Led Design to Recreate St. Pauli Waterfront by 2030

Chosen by a civic jury, the Rabe Landschaften–White Arkitekter plan pairs new leisure space with Elbe flood protection.

Overview

  • The winning concept adds trees, seating by the water, skate elements, a basketball court and flexible play areas.
  • Longstanding events such as the Fischmarkt and the Hafengeburtstag will continue to be accommodated on the redesigned stretch.
  • All competition entries will be displayed in the windows of the Kölibri district center for two weeks starting Monday, with the next planning round set for April 16.
  • Umweltsenatorin Katharina Fegebank cited a preliminary budget of roughly €20 million for the project.
  • The 600‑meter section between the Fischmarkt and Landungsbrücken is being reshaped based on Park Fiction’s 2020–2023 Wunschproduktion, which gathered 700–800 neighborhood ideas.
