The former Meny site is to be transformed into a sustainable development. The project borders directly on the Climate Quarter along Bryggervangen and at Skt. Kjelds Plads. It has been essential to carry forward the Climate Quarter and the green urban landscape into the upcoming new development, where the intention is for the project’s new outdoor recreational areas to be designed with biodiversity in mind and to feature a proportion of green space that far exceeds the paved areas.
Through the project’s collaboration with DGNB, requirements are established for measures to support biodiversity and local fauna, including through the “animal-aided design” approach. This approach integrates habitat and life-cycle requirements into the softscape design of green and blue infrastructure. There will be a strong focus on creating green outdoor spaces, both at ground level and on the elevated roof terraces, as well as on minimizing paved surfaces and planting a robust and species-rich vegetation that consists primarily of naturally occurring species.

Focus Species

Overview of Various Target Species
“Bryggervangen should be a project that is rooted in and contributes to the rest of the Klimakvarteret neighborhood. It should have a social focus on user satisfaction, self-sufficiency, neighbors, and the positive effects of greater biodiversity. A flagship project for biodiversity in the urban context” –
