Alterlaa

Alterlaa (Austrian German pronunciation: [altˈɛʁlaː]) is a residential development in Vienna, Austria, designed by Harry Glück [de].

[1] Located to the south-west of central Vienna the site occupies 24 hectares (59 acres) and is one of the largest residential complexes in Austria.

[3][2] Glück took inspiration from Le Corbusier's 1930s Ville Radieuse and the 1920s designs for terrassenhaus by Adolf Loos and Oskar Strnad.

[4][5] Glück had incorporated a similar set-back profile and garden terrace in his 1971 design of a block for the Junge Generation housing association.

[7] There is also a church, local television station, shopping centre, newspaper office, medical facility (with at least 12 doctors), kindergartens, schools, library, playgrounds and a park.
