The
meadows rise from the level of the park like massifs; they gently slope upwards
to the train tracks.
As
a result, the tracks dive into the new terrain model. If the topographic
relationships (incisions, prominences) between the park and the Rhine are
examined, a type of folded landscape can be seen in which the tracks (which
were intrusive until now) can be viewed as the comforting link on the search
for the horizontal line.
The
folds, i.e. the interplay of varying high and low places, let a number of
different spaces and utilizations develop.
All the design approaches serve to
strengthen the perceptibility and experience of the river landscape. The park
leads the city to the river.
