, Germany, Dortmund, North Rhine-Westphalia - Luxury property on the Phoenix Lake. A former industrial wasteland covering 99 hectares has been transformed into residential, work and leisure space and 24 hectares of lake area. In the event of heavy rainfall, the lake acts as a rainwater retention basin for the River Emscher. Following the construction of a parallel sewer, the Emscher is now free of wastewater, having previously been an open, above-ground wastewater sewer, combined sewer with surface water and wastewater. The Phoenix Lake, a showcase project for structural change, is an artificially created lake on the site of the former Phoenix Ost steelworks in Dortmund's Hoerde district.
