"The aim of the "Common Soil" design is to shape and transform the soil of WK 7 in such a way that in future - from an ecological perspective - it will form part of an overarching continuous green corridor from the Leipzig floodplain landscape in the center to Lake Kulkwitz and - from a social perspective - act as a link between a wide variety of users directly on site."
