My family and I started living in the Pergola District in November 2019. The ‘Pergolenviertel’ is located in Hamburg, Germany and about 1400 residential flats will be part to the district. This photo blog is about the experience of being one of the first residents in a new community built from scratch.

Building of underground waste containers

Building of underground waste containers

The building on development site 2a, directly adjacent to our building and around the same inner courtyard, got the finishing touches over the last week. This included underground waste and recycling facilities. I do like these containers because they do not attract any fly tipping or rats. The containers are lifted out of the ground for emptying and we have the same system in place on site 2b. Mid-March I spotted 4 massive concrete boxes on a lorry and have followed the building process, just completed yesterday.
