The thought behind the master plan is presented on the slab at two poles in the Donaucity. At the entrance to the leisure paradise, Tesar’s sacred building as a solid cross-shaped block of stone cut into the ground provides a physical and spatial response to the topography and the urban constellation. At the other, western, end of the slab: the St. Florian fire station. The only vertical element to the terrace-styled complex is the practise tower. Readiness, speed of action and regeneration are the constituent basic principles behind the plans.
