The concept of "neighborhood", which was declared obsolete some time ago, is more present again â among the population, in the urban landscape, in social policy and in science.

The phenomenon, which is becoming more and more complex, was empirically investigated using a selected example, the Tübingen Alter Güterbahnhof Quartier. In the process, a wide variety of aspects of today's ideas of neighbourhood and lived neighbourhood came to light.
