We believe that the key to living success is a sustainable development which gives local residents access to widely develop facilities, services and recreational area. Strategy for the services in housing is a sustainble division between districts. They are mostly located on ground 0 of multifamily housing. This will give new life for the neighbourhood. Our main goal was to keep multifamily and single family housing as our priority and create for them easily accessible passage, to let our future inhabitants take advantage of the neighbourhood in its bests aspect. We also wanted to achieve happy district in which proximity access to the green terrain is one of the first need. That's why we created a grid of small parks and green passages all around the district. They are all connected with green paths what creates the possibility of transition neighbourhood for local residents. Close distance to the sea makes it more pleasant for long hiking. A wide developed grid of bicycle tracks creates possibility of fast transition within streets. That's why we decided to name our district WALK BY... pleasant to walk.
Firsts obstacle in designing area was luck of the communications within neighbourhood. Fast transition route and railway tracks seceded Nowy Port from the rest of the City of Gdańsk and made this beautiful, industrial and mysterious area forgettable. Thats why we would like to take care about neighbourhood and seeing potentail in Nowy Port makes strong arhument in its future revitalisation. We noticed that attaching Nowy Port and its inhabitan again into will have very good impact on whole site and City. But this needs changes in communication. We decided to rebuild old SKM stop in Nowy Port and add one more in the center of designing district. In our future plan we wolud like to reorganised waterfront and create there libing industrial station of Gdańsk. Intercharging Nowy Port life inti new district by connecting it through Art Quarter wich will have references in Łaźnia. As seeing potential in this area we would like to create inspirational and independent space for youth as places dor start-ups, ideas and social meetings. We also seeing potential in every layers of inhabitants. Looking at well local center in Brzeźno we wanted to create something in between Łaźnia and Brzeźno Local Center giving new residents their own place for intercharging thoughts and skills. This blue paths will connection on the line Brzeźno - Nowy Port and Center of Gdańsk - Nowy Port and will placed our district as a host of this changes
