Short Introduction to the Area of Study

Our chosen area is joined on the south-west side to the Nordstadtpark in Kassel. The area expands parallel to the park. Tree bridges connected the park with our location. Very relevant for the character of the area is a concrete wall on one side and the stream of the Ahna on the other side.

The location can be seen as a place in between, because it connects other main places like the park and the streets. That can be seen as one vital aspects why the area seams to be really interesting to look at. To figure out what kind of potential areas with a pre assumed minor impotence can have for people. Because of the basis of first observational research we figured out that the area is mainly used by younger people and leisure sportsman.
