2020
The open space design of the Main foreland is the result of a competition won in 2011. Thanks to the sensitive approach to the history and topography of the site, the redesign of the Main foreland has become a key project for the city of Kelsterbach, highlighting the unique location on the Main River with the steep slope behind it, improving the quality of local recreational areas, and simultaneously connecting the city to the regional park route. Large-scale measures, such as a new, barrier-free access from the residential area at the Enka site or the upgrading of the confluence of the Kelster and Main Rivers, were complemented by specific measures. In addition to the optimized cycle path connection, existing historic buildings were carefully integrated, and the public space was enhanced with striking squares. For example, a new square was created at the confluence of the Kelster and Main Rivers in 2015, with a seating area along the river. The transition from Graf-de-Chardonnet-Platz to the riverbank is via the "Mainblick" square, which leads directly to the Mainstrand beach and Leinepfad (Leine path), with a walkway and steps at the former bastion providing access to the Main. Approximately 100 meters further, at the harbor, an illuminated walkway and steps lead from the bastion over a height difference of 14 meters into the Mainhöhe residential area.
