The apartments on Hegibachplatz are rented and in good condition, the city council announced on Wednesday. For now, the four residential buildings dating from 1914 do not require extensive repairs.

BUY has already reacted to the purchase. The party writes in a statement that the city council sent “an encouraging signal against gentrification and displacement.”

AL writes that affected tenants submitted a petition to the city council. Other tenants in other neighborhoods whose homes are in danger of being renovated or demolished have done so in recent months.

The city of Zurich wants to increase the proportion of non-profit housing to at least one third by 2050. For this purpose, among other things, a housing fund filled with several hundred million francs was established. This will be used to buy a house, for example.
