The annual accounts are not yet ready, but it is clear that the city hospitals made a large loss last year. The municipal company recently expected a minus of 36 million euros. The causes are manifold. Far fewer patients were treated in the clinics than expected - also because a three-digit number of hospital beds could often not be occupied due to the chronic shortage of staff.In addition, energy costs have risen sharply. The Munich Clinic has also been extremely...
Eva Circulation is standing where she should have died. That's what the National Socialists wanted. They deported the almost two-year-old Eva and her parents to Auschwitz-Birkenau in November 1944. Now, a good 78 years later, Eva Runde is standing in the building that they called "Sauna" at the time. "Dear Naomi," she begins her speech.She is happy that her granddaughter is with her. Naomi is 19 years old, she came specially from the US, where she lives with her family,...
Ms Pepper, to whom one would probably have to say "the robots", looks, nods and spreads her arms on the top floor of the district administration department (KVR). This is how the white artificial figure, a good one meter tall, greets the landlady Hanna Sammüller-Gradl, the IT officer Laura Dornheim (both Green) and Mayor Dieter Reiter (SPD). Perhaps their sweeping gestures with their arms are so friendly because the three announce that they want to advance Pepper's digital world in...
from Sebastian KrassThe new wholesale market hall in Sendling could be significantly smaller than previously planned - and thus make room on the property for hundreds of apartments and a large office district. This is the key data for the new building project on part of the previous wholesale market area, which the city wants to commission a private investor with.

The representatives of the citizens' initiative as well as the Greens and the SPD could not agree on a compromise early on Monday evening.In addition to the differences in content that still exist, the immense time pressure also speaks against the success of the talks. Tobias Ruff, one of the spokesmen for the citizens' initiative and...
Put an end to "Munich's despondency": From the point of view of the deputy mayor Katrin habenschaden, the city needs a liberation for the construction of new high-rise buildings - and a modernization push associated with it. "I'm in favor of loosening our political shackles and no longer relying on stubborn and arbitrary limits such as the height of a church spire," said the Green politician on Tuesday morning at the "Immobilienforum", a specialist congress of the industry, in the...
For decades there was a stately maple tree at Adalbertstraße 55 in Maxvorstadt. It was felled in early October. "I'm still stunned by this," says Sabine Meier. She lives in one of the apartments in the yellow house. Her real name is different, but the tenant fears the consequences. The maple was almost 100 years old, she reports, and its felling changed the streetscape. "The horror on the whole of Adalbertstraße is great."The maple is one of more than 8,500...
from Martin Bernstein"That's why I'm asking you," Melchior Ibing calls out to his around 400 supporters at the conspiracy-ideological march in Milbertshofen on Wednesday, "do we want to address the diesel driving ban (...)?" Only four are against it - and so the former vaccination opponents of "Munich is getting up" have officially included a new topic in their repertoire. One they hope will bring them followers in droves. This has previously been made clear on her Telegram channel. source...
