DescriptionHvidovre from highrise "Store Hus" in Avedøre.jpg
English: the far left the black highrise is the Ferring building in Ørestad.
The blue tower in the middle is the gas-silo in Valby.
The city-walk was very interesting, and we were given insights into the thinking, or lack of, of the city planners. They did have a huge challenge, Denmark was lacking 100,000 housing units, and they managed to deliver, the downside was that it produced the endless concrete landscapes, that the planners and architects themself wouldn't live in themself.
The planned citys were also hurt by changing conditions, by the time "Avedøre Stationsby" was finished we were in a recession, and public housing was hit by the crisis because they were forced to house marginalised people in cities like this.
