which the Garmischer Strasse was integrated<br />
into the Mittlerer Ring. Clearly,<br />
the section from the Luise-Kiesselbach-<br />
Platz towards the Westpark had to absorb<br />
this traffic, resulting in a drastic<br />
change to the quality of life there. The<br />
fact that a tunnel is currently being<br />
planned to take the traffic away from<br />
the Garmischer Strasse shows which<br />
way the wind is now blowing. The “carfriendly”<br />
city now has to show that it<br />
means what it says. The tunnel offers a<br />
great opportunity to reconsolidate a<br />
neighbourhood that has been cut into<br />
pieces by traffic. <strong>GWG</strong> <strong>München</strong> is now<br />
undertaking a major programme of<br />
urban renovation to increase the quality<br />
of life in the surrounding neighbourhood.<br />
District 7, as Sendling-Westpark is<br />
officially called, is now on the way to<br />
becoming one of the most pleasant<br />
neighbourhoods in the Bavarian capital,<br />
combining a central location with a high<br />
quality of life.<br />
