The association berliner wirtschaftsgespräche e. V. (BWG) invited to an open dialogue on the topic “Growing city – challenges in housing construction and urban districts” on December 9th 2019 in B-Part Am Gleisdreieck – the laboratory for the urban quarter of tomorrow.
More than 60 guests discussed with Katrin Lompscher, Senator for Urban Development and Housing, among other things about the irritating topic of rent covers. According to Katrin Lompscher, there will be no commercial rental cover as a continuation of the Berlin rental cover for apartments with her as Senator. In addition to the widely discussed topic of rent caps, the Senator for Urban Development was also able to announce progress. 58 milieu protection areas had been designated in the previous legislation. The urban development plan Wohnen 2030 (StEP Wohnen 2030) is making good progress, according to Senator Lompscher.
