Things to Do in Hard, Zurich

A former industrial quarter in Zürich's west, compressed between railway lines, Hardplatz, and Badenerstrasse. The Hardau residential towers and nearby Prime Tower define the skyline, while workers' blocks, pocket parks, and tram depots preserve the practical texture of a district still midway between old industry and new offices.
