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.

It is Whit Monday today, a bank holiday in Germany, and the building site is nicely empty to take perspective pictures. Yes, today is also 1 June..so the May site update is a wee little bit delayed.

I have decided to omit the two pictures from the inner courtyard from now on because there is no need post pictures of the now busy private spaces. Instead, the inner courtyard of sites 2a and 2b get the benefit of the bird’s eye view.
