80 siting futurity [In the play between demographic and socio-economic de- velopment of the Brunnenviertel, top-down and bottom-up interventions as well as political and public discourse have been able to help a mutually strengthening dynamic to de- velop. This development leads to a change in the area’s image, whereby migrational cultures are perceived as a positive as- pect of urban development and an identity-changing factor, and the Brunnenviertel experiences a new positioning in, as well as serves as a factor in changing the identity of, the over- all urban fabric.] (Antalovsky and et al 2008, 39).
