NEU OERLIKON
This is one of the big booming neighbourhoods in Zurich. In the 19th century the area has been heavily industrialized (especially Brown Boveri, nowadays ABB, and Bührle). These old industrial buildings and infrastructures became more and more outdated in the 1980s and a new masterplan had to be made. In the last 10 years the neighbourhood has gotten a totally new face and yesterday when the weather got a bit better temporarly, I went out to take these pics of this area:

Hope you like my little slide show :cheers:
