Schrebergartens are small garden plots seem frequently in Germany, which allows people living in town without garding space a place to plant flowers and vegetables. Actually many of them also have smal one room (or possible two rooms) cottages where the owners may spend a weekend overnight.
I wonder if something like this might be a new twist for people living in downtown highrises, who want to do more gardening than just containers on the balcony. This garden land is often less desirable land - close to major roads, or industrial areas - not the best for a home, but fine for a garden.
