Living in the Village in the Third

In the third district of Vienna, the Village in the Third is being developed as a new piece of city – one of Vienna's largest urban development areas. Over eleven hectares, ARE Austrian Real Estate is developing a vibrant, almost car-free neighborhood in collaboration with the City of Vienna and wohnfonds_wien, featuring around 2,000 apartments, office and commercial spaces, childcare, educational institutions, and local amenities.

The green heart is the Bert-Brecht-Park, which spans over 2 hectares – an oasis for relaxation, socializing, and play. All non-accessible roofs will be greened. Sharing offers, shopping opportunities, and gastronomy are located right at your doorstep. Sustainability, short distances, and high quality of life are the guiding principles of this new district.

With the slogan "urban at home," Building Site 13 embodies this idea in a special way: modern architecture, versatile open spaces, hobby rooms, and communal areas – living in the heart of Vienna with a strong urban identity and high comfort.

ARE is one of Austria's largest real estate companies and has already realized some of Vienna's most prominent construction projects, including the renovation of the historic Palais Epstein on the Ring and the striking TrIIIple Towers on the Danube Canal. The Village in the Third is also part of this series of innovative projects.

Energy with a future.

A modern energy network ensures that the individual buildings in the Village in the Third are interconnected and energy flows are efficiently managed. Building Site 13 is also part of this innovative network – one of the most modern forms of sustainable district supply.

Ground probes combined with heat pumps provide energy for space heating in winter and for cooling in summer. Photovoltaic systems on the roof generate renewable electricity. Underfloor heating in the ground floor and component activation in the upper floors (through the respective ceiling of the upper floor) ensure a balanced indoor climate. Continuous fresh air supply is ensured by ventilation systems with heat recovery. District heating connection supports supply during peak times and hot water preparation.

This creates an interplay of comfort, innovation, and ecological responsibility – a clear added value for residents.

Architecture that embodies urbanity.

Building Site 13 consists of three structures connected by a common base floor:

OPS 12 Stg. 1+2: five upper floors

OPS 12 Stg. 3: eight upper floors

HGP 5: ten upper floors

A total of 143 freehold apartments with living areas between approximately 45 m² and 110 m² and 2-5 rooms will be created, as well as 2 commercial units. Additionally, 10 hobby rooms will be available for purchase. The compact building form mostly ensures two-sidedly lit apartments, each with two open spaces:

A free space room with movable perforated sheet elements for privacy and shading

A covered balcony with glass railing

Dry-foot access is provided via the central covered corridor from the main entrance on Otto-Preminger-Straße to the two rear buildings, leading to the Hilde-Güden-Promenade and direct access to the park. The corridor is widened with generous openings to the atrium courtyards, which are illuminated and ventilated from above. Car and bicycle garages, waste rooms, and stroller storage rooms are also directly accessible via this central corridor. Additional entrances at the park level allow good pedestrian accessibility from all directions.
