Hello,
we have found a very interesting plot of land in principle – however, when I look on maps, I see what appears to be an oil facility or something similar and a power station "nearby." There is still forest and a highway in between, but could this have any negative effects regarding odors, health, potential accidents, or something like that?
What do you think? Any concerns?

And what is the special use area directly behind your property? Was there once industrial activity there?

For me, that would be way too close. Also, there’s a nice transformer station even closer.
*Popcorn thread* 😉Well, Henrik is amusing us again -)
It feels like we’re practically planning his house together through the forum

I thought you wanted to build in the Frankfurt area.
Gelsenkirchen is quite a distance from there.
By the way, speaking of Gelsenkirchen: wasn’t there heavy mining activity there in the past?
Just making sure the land isn’t undermined, which could increase the risk of earthquakes or ground subsidence. It reminds me of a place in Saarland, Saarwellingen (I think that’s the name), where something like that happened once.

Henrik08171238 Jul 2016 12:20No, I have nothing to do with Frankfurt – would something like that show up in a soil survey, or how would you find out?
With so many negative factors, you hardly want to build anymore. It really is a big risk for others who just buy and build without getting surveys, without doing any research beforehand, and so on...
