Building a social environment

>> The housing offer is particularly responsive to different living situations. In this context, the growing group of single parents in Vienna is particularly important to me. That's why an innovative and customized offer is being created for this group for the first time. <<

Kathrin Gaál, Deputy Mayor & Executive City Councillor for Housing, Housing Construction, Urban Renewal and Women’s Issues


Since 2009, social sustainability has been one of the four pillars of subsidized housing in Vienna. How this social sustainability is defined must always be renegotiated and optimized. This is because the requirements change in line with the social and demographic changes in society. Today, it is possible to respond to the needs of single parents, the elderly and young people in a more targeted way than in the past. This was one of the main goals in the development of the Wolfganggasse neighborhood.

In spring 2018, the Wolfganggasse depot, which also housed the old remise of the Wiener Lokalbahn, was abandoned in order to convert the area into a residential area. After a cooperative planning process was carried out in 2016 and a new zoning and development plan was adopted, a developer competition was launched in 2018 as part of the 2018 - 2020 housing offensive.

Life in community
On the 31,000m2 site, a new neighborhood is now being built with more than 800 subsidized apartments: special forms of housing for single parents, a municipal housing estate NEW, SMART apartments, subsidized rental apartments, shared apartments for partially assisted living for people with disabilities and home places with socio-educational support. In addition to subsidized apartments, the new urban neighborhood offers a nursing home, a kindergarten, a supermarket, workshops and space for additional business premises. The Austrian Young Workers' Movement (Österreichische Jungarbeiterbewegung, ÖJAB), which is already located here, is expanding its care center and locating training workshops and a home for apprentices. One of the housing developers will establish its new company location there. Other numerous and diverse community facilities are in the making. These diverse offerings in the Wolfganggasse urban development area create optimal conditions for a lively district.

Social mix
The social mix is ensured by the diverse range of apartments, which are aimed at different living and income situations as well as family forms. In concrete terms, this means flexible room layouts within the apartments, studio apartments, shared apartments, separate living groups or guest apartments that can be used temporarily. The common rooms here are planned and usable as extended living rooms. In this way, communal activities, contacts and communication are promoted and the emergence of a socially supportive living environment is made possible.

The green and open spaces with their diverse range of offers are cross-building, and the large, common open space can be used by the residents of all buildings. The former coach house will be preserved and renovated and will serve as a new neighborhood center in the future.

Redevelopment for the neighborhood
In the course of the development of the Wolfganggasse neighborhood, the existing buildings in the neighboring neighborhoods will also be the focus of a redevelopment offensive in the coming years. This existing area will be upgraded and networked in interaction with the new development area. The potential of 100 properties to the west of Haydnpark will be investigated, and concepts with corresponding funding opportunities will be developed. The main goal of the block redevelopment is to improve the quality of living and life through redevelopment and upgrading of the public space. The adjacent Paula von Mirtow Park will also be enlarged.
