Why is this case relevant?
Oslo is a city, not unlike many others, that in recent years has experienced strong growth. It does not seem to be waning, and this places high demands on housing and infrastructural development. In previous phases, the City Council has met strong adversities from the population in cases where they have tried to move "marka border” - the metered boundary between the city and the forest ridge. It has been clear for many years that both the green forest ridge behind the city and the views of the bay and access to water has been important for the identity of the cities inhabitants. The enthusiasm was great when the City Council approved a new plan to work toward making Oslo a fjord city in 2000. The residents looked forward to a more accessible water front, a blue-green profile with a balance between renewal and preservation, social housing and a project focusing on user involvement in Bjørvika, the new heart of Oslo. But some argue that the development that has happened bears little, or no resemblance, to the plans that were envisioned and the reactions have been many. I chose this case because I think it is interesting how participation and the preservation of local identity and sacred places was so vital to the plan before it started and how it all seemed to be washed away because of external influences and private constructors.
