The Aspern Urban Lakeside (officially also Aspern Urban Lakeside, project name: Aspern - Vienna's Urban Lakeside) is a part of town under construction in the 22nd district of Vienna Danube city and one of the largest urban development projects in Europe of the 2010s. Over a period of around 20 years a new district should arise, in which over 20,000 people are supposed to work and to live. The first of three development stages focuses until around 2017 to the south of the part of the city.
Location
Aspern Urban Lakeside with lake, 2012
The planned seaside town is located about 7 kilometers east of the city center, on the other bank of the Danube, already on the verge of March field (gravel and stone plain in Lower Austria bordering Vienna).
The area is bounded as follows:
In the north of the Marchegger Eastern Railway, forming since 1870 the (currently operated hourly) connection between Vienna and Bratislava and long has been used by the legendary Orient Express. The here layed out traffic station Vienna Aspern Nord offers since October 2013 U-Bahn (U2) underground traffic to the center of Vienna and from 2017 S-Bahn ÖBB (line S80) suburban traffic to Vienna's main train station as well as regional trains.
To the east beyond the Josefine Hawelka pathway or the Cassinonestraße adjoin settlements of the since 1938 belonging to Vienna outskirts village of Essling.
In the south adjoins to the site an extensive factory premises of General Motors Austria, which lies at the Groß-Enzersdorfer Road (bus number 26A), connecting Aspern and Essling.
In the West adjoins beyond the Johann Kutschera alley the belonging to Aspern suburban settlement to the area.
Positions of neighboring districts:

History
The area northeast of the historic village of Aspern in March field was named after a man-made lake in the center of the development area.
On the former airfield Aspern, Vienna's airport during the interwar period, by the year 2028 around 240 hectares should be developed. This corresponds to the area of 7th and 8th district of Vienna. Planned are around 10,500 homes for 20,000 people and business premises for 15,000 office jobs as well as 5,000 jobs in industry, science, research and education.
For the development and utilization responsible is the Wien 3420 Aspern Development AG, a real estate development company which in December 2004 as a subsidiary company of the Vienna Business Agency, a fund of the City of Vienna (73.6%) and the (Bundesimmobiliengesellschaft) Federal Property Association (26.4%) was established. The planning is done in consultation with the relevant municipal departments of the city administration and the Wiener Linien, the public transport company of the city of Vienna.

Urban Planning
The urban concept of the maritime city is focused on the mixing of functions - there should be no purely residential use or commercial use. In this way, a dormitory town should be avoided and during the day non-stop revival obtained. The master plan for the seaside town was created by Swedish architect John Tovatt and adopted unanimously by the Vienna City Council on 25 May 2007. Essential contents are the functional arrangement of uses and the spatial configuration of both small and large urban gestures to an urban master plan.
Public space
The geographic center of the seaside town will form a 5-acre lake, which already largely exists, in a total of 9 hectare park. The lake is fed from groundwater. The public space - thus streets, squares and parks - occupies 50 percent of the total area of urban development.
In order to make the public space for the people who will live and work in the seaside town attractive, the Danish open space planners Gehl Architects by the Wien 3420 AG and the Municipal Department 19 (architecture) with the creation of a planning manual for public space (a "score of the public space") were commissioned. The planning manual is based on the idea that public life is a precious commodity that needs to focus it. Therefore Gehl Architects particularly important axes have worked out in the seaside town. The Circular road as a major route that has received the name Sun alley, the Red chord (shopping street, culture), the Blue string (sea park and promenade) and the Green string (green spaces, recreational areas). By 2015, three parks are built, the central Marine park, the Yella-Hertzka park and Hannah Arendt park, along with 8 hectares (May 26 2014 ground-breaking ceremony).
Development phases
The construction of the seaside town of Aspern is to take place until 2028 in three stages:
Stage 1 (2009-2017): The development company Wien 3420 Aspern Development AG builds the green spaces and the technical infrastructure (roads, sewage, etc.) and thus provides the impetus for the development of the maritime city. In the first large-scale expansion in the southwestern part of the maritime city arises a mixed quarter with approximately 2,600 residential units, offices, business and service companies as well as research and development facilities. The large volume is to ensure local supply and the desired mix of uses from the start. In October 2013, the metro stations Aspern North at the northern edge of the area and Seaside town as terminus of line U2 in the south have been opened. In this stage also falls the establishment of a R & D Park (research and development). As first impulse project there emerges an Innovation Quarter (Technology Centre), for which a realization competition was launched. With the IQ aspern by 2012 a first settlement core was created.
Stage 2 (2017-2022): The Station Aspern North and the connection through a powerful city street to the A 23 motorway and the branch S 1 are completed. Other residential and mixed districts and the train station and office quarters arise.
Stage 3 (from 2022): To the train station, the shopping street and the subway route adjacent areas are further compressed, the mix of uses is further improved.
