Glattpark is a large construction project in Switzerland that is taking shape in Opfikon, close to the border to Zürich. As part of the construction project a new neighbourhood will be built by 2020; it is designed to provide room for 7,000 residents and about the same number of jobs. Some of the favourable locational factors used to market the area are the direct proximity to the city of Zürich, where similar construction projects are being realized in Oerlikon and Seebach. The large service companies based in the north of the city and other companies in Glattbrugg, Rümlang and at the airport promise a large number of potential jobs. One of the negative points is that the area is about two miles from the threshold of runway 34/16 of Zurich Airport and thus practically in the axis line of the runway. However, construction in the area is placing a strong emphasis on noise isolation of the buildings, with inhabitants reporting that the noise levels are not significant.
