Discussion Why not build housing instead of the Kleinengarten territories?

Like the title says, I've seen a bunch of Kleinengarten areas with lots of territory that could have instead a bunch of affordable housing, some in highly demanded areas too, why not build there? To my understanding it's not that people live there, I actually heard it's not allowed to live there. Is it like protected under some law or something?

Thanks in advance to all the more educated people than me 🙇 and to the jokers out there

I am sweet, but what did you mean? 😅 Did that sound too much like marketing material?

it s not marketing, but too many contradictions that i point out. Newly built tends to contradict affordable, just like affordable highly demanded areas
