Environmental Protection: Controversy over Planned New Construction Project in Kiel

The housing market in Kiel is tight, more apartments are urgently needed, but space in the city is limited. Now a previously agricultural area is to be converted into a new residential quarter. More than 800 apartments are to be built. Seniors, students, and families are to live there in the future. Environmental organizations criticize the plans because the new construction project at Torfmoorkamp would harm nature and is difficult to reconcile with Kiel's climate protection goals.
