This page offers an insight into the thoughts behind Metropolzonen, the three tracks of the project and a few words from the Mayors on what they see as the future of the zone.
The three tracks and the idea assignment
A few words form the mayors
Ritt Bjerregaard
”Copenhagen’s Metropolzone is the one place in Denmark where the most people from the most countries pass each other. It should be an open, lively and tolerant place – a place that reflects the spaciousness – in any sense of the word – and international outlook of the city. And it must be a place of international stature. Right now the focus is the planning of the project, but the goal is clearly to bring new life to the heart of the city, giving Copenhagen a new and invigorated centre.”
Klaus Bondam
” My dream is one of a true metropolis with enough space for lots of city life – an area that combines the cultural and business comunities in an entirely new way. Metropolzonen should be open to the entire city and be buzzing with life making it the energizing pulse of the capital!”
