In 2004, the public-private partnership between the Copenhagen City Council, real-estate businesses and Realdania, a private fund, started a regeneration process. The neighbourhood s old houses have been refurbished with a participatory process that involves part of the population, but there is an even more colourful and famous part of the project: a public space connecting the whole area. The designers divided the area of the former railway line SuperKilen (Big Wedge) into three zones: the Red Square, the Black Market and the Green Park; a modern urban space with cultural and sport facilities, a marketplace and a park for sports, picnics and walks.
