Urban development best practices
The Halle 14 project is part of a large brownfield regeneration project, namely the reconversion of Europe’s (once) largest cotton mill complex in Leipzig. It is an excellent example of how brownfield development and creative industries can be used as impetus in a wider urban regeneration context. The approach of using derelict land and widely abandoned buildings for new, sustainable growth ties this project to the Europe 2020 flagship initiative for a resource-efficient Europe which identifies the recycling of land as one of the pathways for greater resource efficiency.
