Erkrath-Hochdahl, Am Stadtweiher, built ca. 1970. Roaming through the town where I grew up, which is a “New Town” built between the 1960s and 1990s, I started getting interested in the small design details of 1960s/70s large scale housing developments like the one at “Am Stadtweiher”. Has anybody ever bothered to document such details? I hope so, because these are the little things that usually get lost in the course of redevelopment.
