The Langer Anger water basins, in conjunction with the filter basins on the sides, serve to treat the rainwater that accumulates and to improve the microclimate in the Bahnstadt. However, as a result of excessive nutrient input from the surrounding green roofs, strong algae growth occurs.
In order to improve the water quality, the water basins are being gradually renovated. Water basin 3 was currently being rebuilt in 2022.
