The plan was to build 1,100 new apartments in 38 buildings on 2.8 hectares of land. A critique of it in the deutsche bauzeitung (db) recalls the historical heritage in which the project stands: "It is laudable that the Deutscher Werkbund is speaking out with a contribution. After all, it is precisely the Werkbund housing estates from Stuttgart to Breslau, Prague, Vienna and Zurich that stand for the experimental living worlds of modernism.

28357 Bremen-Hollerland: 200 units (not realised); model photos, well-analysed study on the failure of the project. The most important reasons: "too sterile architecture; too expensive although low-cost construction was promised; too far outside the city; the fact that the city railway was not routed to the new district after all; generally poor construction activity; major employer in Bremen went bankrupt." However, the Hollerland project caused a lot of media hype and is regarded as a model for many other projects that have since been realised, such as "Bremen-Grünenstrasse", although not on the outskirts of the city but in the city centre.
