Organigramm summarizes the current conflict and the interest of Zurich city development. Triemlifussweg is originally planed as an express street connecting the highway A1 and A3 in 1950,
Residential buildings built in 1960s along fussweg orient to the express street. Due to the high cost of construction Hardplatz, the express street project was rejected, after the housing project completed. The recession in 1973 redefined the real estate market, instead of being ownership apartment, the buildings become rented objects owned by banks and the city Zurich.

subplan of downdrafts system
The Zurich inner city is supplied with cold air primarily by valley downdrafts and slope winds. In particular, the core areas of the city rely on the inflow of cooler air from the slope areas of the surrounding hills.
Wind systems should remain largely unaffected so that they can continue to function and provide nighttime cooling. The inflow of cooler air into the settlement should not be interrupted. Air exchange processes are critical to reducing heat stress.
