A Monday evening gathering for those who spend their commute thinking about the Frankfurter Grüngürtel and the potential of the Mainkai pedestrianization. We are meeting at Bethmann Park to discuss how Frankfurt balances its high-density financial core with the need for livable, sustainable public spaces. The conversation will likely drift from the efficiency of the VGF network to the specific challenges of retrofitting the Anlagenring for better cycling infrastructure. It is a low-stakes exchange of ideas for anyone interested in why our city looks and moves the way it does.
