Margareten is a typical district inside the Vienna Beltway mainly comprising dense development and little in the way of green spaces. Even so, Margareten has still made considerable progress in recent years. There has been a noticeable change especially due to the U-Bahn metro network expansion and associated connection to the U2 metro line. The extension will benefit the district with a metro junction at Pilgramgasse and other stations at Reinprechtsdorfer Straße and Matzleinsdorfer Platz. The recently completed redesign of Reinprechtsdorfer Straße was a key step in improving the district. This project involved planting thirty-two new, large trees and laying spacious green beds with water features and mist columns installed to improve the microcli- mate and cool the air in the summer. Apart from that, wider pave- ments with light-coloured granite flagstones and additional seating areas have significantly improved liveability. The street has also been optimised for cyclists by allowing cycling in two directions on the one-way system. A refurbishment project to modernise Scheupark towards improving the area’s inclusive, family-friendly qualities began in late 2024. An additional cycle route measuring
one and a half kilometres from Viennatal to Matzleinsdorfer Platz is in planning; an 800-metre green cycleway on Kohlgasse forms a central element in this climate-friendly route. The ongoing revitalisation projects in the traditional Viennese grätzel neighbourhoods in the district have led to increasing demand for living space in Margareten. Expectations of significant upgrades to individual locations in major parts of the district have led to acceptance of increased prices, even though apartment prices in the Fifth District are still cheaper than in all the other districts inside the Vienna Beltway. The district offers little scope for new construction due to its dense development. Developers mainly use the few areas for smaller, higher-value construction projects such as the Essenz NO. 1 project on Kettenbrückengasse and one at Grohgasse 10. The few larger construction projects are underway on Wiedner Hauptstraße and on Schönbrunner Straße.
