One of the most extensive rust zones of Budapest, Rákosrendező depot railway station covers almost 100 hectares. This diploma design treats the revitalisation project of its communication routes in a generous way. Worked out as a concept of open-space architecture, it focussed on a 50 hectare part of the former railway zone bordered by a stream (Rákos-patak) from the south, which is actually the site of the former Northern Engine-House. Its communication route with the Zoo, as the next-door neighbour of the MúzeumLiget (MuseumGrove, has the potentials of becoming a valuable area of municipal development on the agenda.
