At the construction site “Vienna City Park” in Liesing there is a muffled noise. Neighbors despair of the “impulse compression”.
“My head is already pounding in the afternoon and I am certainly not the only one with this noise torment,” complains 76-year-old resident Peter B. from the nearby Kugelmann settlement, which immediately borders the former Novartis site. No stone has been left unturned as the grounds for the so-called “Vienna City Park” have been developed. But development mainly means deforestation.
“There is nothing left of the former natural strips between the individual buildings”, B. criticizes the concrete offensive at the local inspectorate “Krone”. The vague promise of the developers of the “Vienna City Park” of ecologically responsible use of natural resources still sounds like ridicule in the ears of residents. Especially since the soil is compacted before development.
B. Regrets: “We were warned explicitly and literally that sensitive people could perceive vibrations, but nobody suspected it would get that bad.” What he can do: cover his ears against the constant thumping and hope for greening.
