Der Wörter-See geht an Land
Eine tolldreiste Plattform für jede Form von Wortkunst, wenn sie schlau, unkorrekt und unterhaltsam ist: lauter schräges Zeug also.
A lot has changed in Wiedikon since Phenomden sang the following lines in 2005:
"Ich liebä Wiedike
Das isch de Ort wonni läbe,
Bi Sunne oder Räge
Ich bliib i mim Quartier, dänn ich weiss ich liebe Wiedike
I know I love Wiedike
I'm in dere Gägend, vo Bäum und Laschtwäge .."
The lorries have virtually disappeared since the Weststrasse was closed to through traffic in 2010. Instead, trendy cafés and restaurants have moved in. The area around the Lochergut and Brupbacherplatz is affectionately called "Neubellevue" by the scenesters. The former workers' quarter is now experiencing a hip upswing. What does the cultural scene in Wiedikon have to offer?
