The HafenCity has been a place for people who can afford a bit more than the average citizen. But now, at the tenth anniversary of the HafenCity, a promise given ten years ago is going to be fulfilled. It was in the interest of the planners to offer a diverse mix of people, therefore, not only was the new part of Hamburg intended for the rich but also for the average earner. A new plan for the still empty spaces in the City will be introduced in May. It has been announced that in the east between Elbbrücken and Baakenhafen new flats will be build that are affordable for all. It is planned that 12,000 citizens will, when completed, find their homes in the HafenCity; to reach this number new homes will be built by 2025 – 3,700 flats in all.
