The Gymnasiumstraße is about 400 meters long and can be characterized as an inner-city suburban street. Due to the worn condition of the existing asphalt pavement and the wild parking, there is a lack of quality of stay and attractiveness. A center of the quarter in the form of a living area is missing. Today's linear and monotonous street space is divided into three areas. The structure is reinforced by the reciprocal arrangement of trees, each forming a green end and viewing point of the individual road sections. The central section is of particular importance as a new traffic-calmed district centre.
