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:
Hirschstetten, Breitenlee, Lackenjöchl
Neuessling
Outskirts settlement, neighboring communities, Essling, Aspern
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.

I got promoted! Actually it is the rank I enlisted with but they screwed up the paperwork and didn't know I was an E-2 upon enlistment and a good thing for me.
I left for basic training on a flight from Ohare in Chicago IL and got stuck on a seat next to a guy who looked like Charlie Manson and he talked all the way to texas about how much fun it would be. Do you think we'll get a maching gun to shoot? I can't wait to go to war! I'm gonna do this and that and the other thing. OMG I wished the guy would just shut up, but on and on we went. Even to this day I don't have a clue where we landed but remember getting off the plane and all these sergeants were there with clipboards and screaming at us assholes to form up in ranks, but nobody knew what that meant except me because I had four years of Army ROTC training in high school. Didn't help much in this situation, but we finally managed to get into a line and they put us on busses and took us to the Air Base for more processing and more paperwork to fill out and sign. We were super tired and it was like O dark O'clock when we finally got to our barracks only to find more shit to listen to even though some guys were falling asleep as they stood. That's when we met SSgt Lundsford. We got a speech about duty, honor, country..then an ass chewing like you wouldn't believe about how we were grabastic pieces of shit, but how he would help us become fucking human beings worthy of serving in the armed forces of our country...on and on it went, he picked out a few people to personally villify and knock around, but finally we got to go to our bunks and sleep. It was around 3am (0300). Too bad that revelie was at 0600, and we got a rude awakening with SSgt Lundsford screaming lots of nasty stuff and dumping bunks over spilling the sleeping occupants on "his" shiny floor and fucking it all up! He checked his roster and asked if anyone had ROTC training and I almost raised my hand, but heard him mumble...oh, we don't have any..good...I hate those assholes and love to fuck with them, so I put my almost raised hand back down. It was a wise decision too.
My plane buddy who looked like charlie manson looked alot different when he got his beard and head shaved off, but he still went on about how he was going to be a war hero. But that only lasted two days. He was so frightened by the TI he ran across the upper floor of the barracks on the second day and right throught the window and screen...I saw his body hit the grass outside the barracks and roll off in spasms. They called an ambulance and took him away...not that big a hero I guess. Another guy tried the same thing the next day but couldn't manage to break throught the glass and screen. But after these guy were weeded out we got down to the business of...marching alot and playing robots. I liked it.
This is the first of a new range of decorative leatherwork I am starting. Running in tandem with the 'Crown of Gears' steampunk range, the 'Give Me Thorns' range of items is aimed at a more mature audience and falls under the categories of costume and fetish/kink wear.
I have personally seen a lot of different styles of fetish wear and always wondered why none of it is as colourful as I expect, or more bluntly put, why everything is either plastic-pink or boring-black. This range is designed to push boundaries and designs, making it beautiful, functional and also subtle as it does not immediately jump out as fetish wear. If made without the D-ring on the front, this design functions as a decorative choker.
The first colourway is called 'Royal Blood' as it fades from the back to the front in black, dark brown and oxblood, emphasised with brass rivets and finished with a brass crescent moon. The second colourway is called 'Nightsky' as it fades from the back to the front in black, blue and purple, emphasised with silver rivets and detailing. Both fasten with a small 1/2" buckle at the back and were made to fit the intended wearer.
This design can be fitted to any size neck, the standard model being for a 34cm neck. It has 'cutaway' sections to show the thorn detailing and the colour of the pigskin suede lining, which allows for less restriction on the throat than a solid collar. The spikes on this design are placed to fall on pressure points around the neck giving it the qualities of a posture collar.
To commission a collar like these would cost £30 for a basic colour with a plain suede lining. Please enquire for more options.

The basic tote is a simpler version of the diaper bag. It has interior pockets and is easy to make. Choosing a firmer fabric for this one will help cut down the time it takes to fuse interfacing on such large pieces.
Skill level: Beginner/Easy
Materials Needed:
• 1 yard outer fabric
• 1 yard fabric for lining (should be sturdy fabric, not thin or slick suit lining fabric)
• 2.5 yards decor bond* interfacing (no substitutions) * Decor bond is a type of pellon brand interfacing. It will say decor bond on the end of the bolt.
• spool of matching/coordinating 100% polyester all purpose thread (thread will only be seen on the outer strap and pockets)
• magnetic snap
• optional hard coroplast purse bottom
NOTE: if you choose a sturdy fabric for outer fabric and lining, like canvas, twill, denim or upholstery weight fabric, you can omit the decor bond interfacing. This makes the bag making process much faster, which is a wise choice if you're a new sewer.
All supplies are available at Stitch Lab! Please arrive 20-30 minutes early, if you opt to make your selections and have them cut right before class.
