The Limmatfeld in Dietikon was developed on the former industrial and commercial site known as the Rapid site, located between the railway station and the River Limmat. Between 2009 and 2016, housing for around 2,500 residents and approximately 700 jobs was created. The site was divided into several construction sectors and developed as a mixed-use quarter. The development includes buildings of varying heights and typologies. Residential uses are complemented by commercial activities, services and gastronomy. Parts of the ground floors are used for commercial purposes and contribute to the functional mix and activation of the quarter.
Public squares, open spaces and access routes structure the site and link the different construction sectors. The immediate proximity to Dietikon railway station ensures good access to public transport and supports the integration of the quarter into the urban environment. Halter developed and realised several sectors of the Limmatfeld. The transformation of the former industrial site resulted in a new quarter that combines living and working in a central location.
