From desert to flowers: Marienstraße urgently needs a green upgrade

From desert to flowers: Marienstraße urgently needs a green upgrade

In recent years, the city of Perleberg has changed and developed significantly. Many buildings in the city center have been renovated and shine in new splendor. The city administration also actively takes care of the beautification of the parks and green areas, which many citizens pleased.

But despite these positive developments, there are still a few corners in the city that urgently need attention. A particularly striking example is Marienstraße, which is denied when walking through the city through the city. Although there are a few trees there, the strips of brown-gray desert are shaped, where there is hardly any green grass. A sad sight for a city that tries to appear.

Swamp instead of flower sea

However, the situation changes when it rains. Occasional rainfall transform the once drought sidelines into real swamp landscapes. On days when it rains, the sidewalk on one side of Marienstraße simply becomes a narrow trail. This is not only unsightly, but also impractical for pedestrians and cyclists.

The question arises as to why no measures have so far been taken to improve these areas. There are numerous ways to change the situation. One of the simplest would be the sow of lawn or the creation of colorful flower strips that can already be found in other places in the city, such as the Bahnhofsplatz. Such measures would not only significantly upgrade the cityscape, but also offer a large number of insect species.

The upcoming Brandenburg Day, which is celebrated in Perleberg in one year, could be an excellent opportunity to show the city from its most beautiful side. It should not only be paid to the central places, but also focus on the side streets and small streets. After all, it is the overall picture of a city that gives the impression of hospitality and care.

In the city of Perleberg, it is of great importance not only to rely on large renovations, but also to make the small, often overlooked corners sustainable. A flowering environment in the streets can contribute to the quality of life of the residents and lead to an inviting cityscape.
