Uwe Seeler Foot A place of beautiful memories, the bronze monument in honor of HSV idol Uwe Seeler has become a place of touching remembrance. Back then, on August 24, 2005, when the oversized bronze sculpture was unveiled in his honor, Uwe Seeler was naturally in the midst of it all. Together with numerous invited guests, he inaugurated his own monument and demonstrated what had characterized him throughout his life: Pure joy of life, bliss, humility, and gratitude. Almost 17 years later, the Uwe Seeler Foot has become a place of memory. Since the death of the HSV idol on July 21, countless people have made a pilgrimage to the landmark and paid their last respects to "Uns Uwe". Many flowers, candles, and wreaths were laid down. But also very personal dedications: A condolence book, several letters, and notes with memorial sayings. Of course, tears flow again and again among the mourners, but here and there a smile can also be seen on their faces.

The Volksparkstadion in Hamburg is a football stadium. It is located within the Bahrenfeld district in Hamburg's Altona Volkspark and is the home ground of Hamburger SV. The stadium was opened in 1953 and was converted into a pure football stadium between 1998 and 2000. In addition to football matches, concerts and other events also take place in the stadium. The facility is very clearly laid out. A visit is recommended and interesting at the same time 👍🏼.

At the initiative of the Altona district assembly, the former Sylvesterallee near the Volksparkstadion was renamed in honor of the HSV legend two years after his death. As honorary captain of the national team and an honorary citizen of Hamburg, Uwe Seeler was a role model for many people, both in terms of his sporting achievements and his character. Uwe Seeler was born in Hamburg on November 5, 1936. He died on July 21, 2022. Many Hamburg residents knew him as "the greatest HSV player of all time," having scored 404 goals in 476 appearances for his club and becoming the first Bundesliga top scorer in the 1963/64 season. With the national team, Uwe Seeler became World Cup runner-up in 1966, scoring 43 goals in 72 appearances for the German national team. In addition to his sporting successes, Uwe Seeler was committed to civic engagement. In 1996, he founded the Uwe Seeler Foundation, which supports people in need. In 1970, he became the first German athlete to be awarded the Federal Cross of Merit. On his 50th birthday in 1986, the Senate established the Uwe Seeler Prize to promote youth development in football clubs, which has been awarded close to his birthday ever since. In 2003, Uwe Seeler was granted honorary citizenship of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg.

Timeline of the Altona Tunnel Decision in the open space planning ideas competition (May 2012) Planning approval for the Altona Tunnel section (December 2018) Draft functional plan for the Altona Tunnel Park (Summer 2023) Development of the zoning plan for the Altona Tunnel (since 2024) Planned completion of the Altona Tunnel (from 2034) Living and working alongside the covered A7 At more than two kilometers, the Altona Tunnel will be the longest covered section of the expanded A7 motorway. It runs from Volkspark to Behringstraße. The tunnel reliably protects residents from noise and pollutants and creates new neighborhoods between the currently separated districts west and east of the motorway. Apartments will be built in the heart of Hamburg in the immediate vicinity of the new green space – the allotment gardens currently located there will be relocated, among other things, to the newly created areas under the tunnel and other replacement areas in the Altona district. https://www.hamburg.de/politik-und-verwaltung/behoerden/behoerde-fuer-stadtentwicklung-und-wohnen/projekte-und-kampagnen/deckel-a7-und-science-city/der-deckel-altona-957952
