Really impressive stuff going on. Love this artifical lake, the new shopping mall and the skyline seems to grow as well. Lots of good quality there.

I don't think he meant to say it's just this picture that appealed to him, but it was the one he liked best (that took the cake).

But yeah indeed, Dortmund looks marvellous in those photos. It has its fair share of really ugly districts, but it really is an exception of the big Ruhr cities in many regards.

Dortmund and ugly districts? No way!


No erbse, i know what you mean

Indeed, i think Dortmund is no exception in the western of Germany. Dortmund was totally destroyed in 2.WW and have for sure ugly districts but also the districts of these pictures. However the city is in a process and not be finished. Reference to the Thread Dortmund Project in the Germany&Austria Forum

Dortmund Westfalenpark

Westfalenpark

Dortmund is not only an excellent location for industry, however, but also has a lot to offer in other areas. Numerous greens, making up almost half of the city’s 280 square kilometers, provide a high quality of life and leisure time. Lets go for a trip to the green lung of the ruhr area and dortmund...

Subway near the "Autobahn"




Subwaystation "Westfalenhallen"













TV Tower called "Florian" (270m)






Dortmund City


Westfalenstadion


Phönix-West












Impression







old steel mine phoenix in the background

The thread title is somewhat hypocritical, but the pictures shown here prove that Dortmund is wrongfully called one of the ugliest towns in Germany.

After 5min journey time you are in the court district called Kaiserviertel with small old mansions, the court and the consulate of Italy. It is a nice district for students and singels.






Consulate of Italy

I actually never thought much about it and I have never been there. For me Dortmund was just equal to the Ruhrgebiet and therefore my idea of it was rather negative.
