At the former site of F.L. Smidth, the redevelopment of the Valby Have allotment society continues. With the first stages of conversion for residential use completed in 2005– 2010, the remaining stages are expected to be completed by end-2020. When fully devel- oped, the area will contain some 1,200 dwellings and 35,000 sq m commercial space. In the southern part of Valby, Valby Syd, a large-scale conversion scheme has trans- formed industrial areas into attractive retail and office spaces. This has attracted several shops and firms operating in the service sector, including several government agen- cies, or creative industries. Together with the improved public transport access supported by the upcoming extension of the Copenhagen Metro and the Ringstedbanen rail link, connecting to Ny Ellebjerg station, this provides an ideal setting for attractive mixed-use residential and office premises. Developers and investors in the area are leveraging the mounting demand for affordable housing by middle-income groups as the area meets their requirements of central loca- tion, accessibility and attractive urban living. The Carlsberg City District The redevelopment of the former Carlsberg Brewery site is well underway, creating an entire new city district, the Carlsberg City District, with a distinctly urban ambience to outrival the neighbouring districts of Frederiksberg and Vesterbro. With planning provi- sions allowing for high-density building, the district is designed to offer an intimate setting of streets, squares and open spaces. The district is located in close proximity to green spaces and benefits from easy access to public transport with two new metro stations recently opening in neighbouring districts and the relocation of Enghave station (now Carlsberg station) to a more ideal location in the south-eastern part of the district.
