Time for renewal and greening

Typical 1980s houses, where renovation and sustainability of social housing should be a priority. In terms of cosiness, you see in the oldest part that there is a lot of turnover, few playgrounds for small children or space to play ball, etc. As far as I'm concerned, it's time for a large-scale approach, joint clean-up and renovation goals for green spaces and more social outdoor play projects! In addition, the business park near the clinic and the clinic itself are really outdated.
