Park am Gleisdreieck

GROSS.MAX. won 3rd prize in the international competition to design a new park on the former Anhalter Bahnhof in Berlin. Having been abandoned, the site became an urban jungle of pioneer species’, ruderal vegetation, and slowly decaying rails.

Proposing a mix of urban meadow, pioneer woodland, and urban garden to structure the site, the design aims to overcome the prior separating character of the rail-tracks, to forge new connections and routes.
