History
The Riem is after Freiham the second youngest district of Munich. After the flight operation was moved in 1992 to the Franz -Josef-Strauss new airport, the old airport buildings could be canceled in Riem and started from the mid-1990s with the construction of the New Munich Trade Fair and the corresponding U - Bahn train connections in the following years. In 1998, this was finally able to move out of their confinement of the exhibition halls on the Theresienhohe in the spacious new building in the fair city. Many companies also settled on the former airport site.
Immediately west of the entrance of the West Messesee been created, the 390 m long ( north-south) and 46 to 94 m wide (east-west ), with a water area of 2.6 hectares and is in the middle by a bridge of Joseph- Wild-Straße spans, which ends on the east side at the west entrance. The lake is bounded by the Olof Palme Street ( West), " On Messesee " (east) and the Willy -Brandt -Allee ( South).
In the southern part of the former airport a development area with rental apartments and condominiums is created in the suburbs. With the Riem Arcades is located there is also a shopping center. Due to numerous traffic zones, many kindergartens and three primary schools the exhibition center is a suitable place to live for young families.

Riemer Park
To the south of the residential area is the Riemer Park. In 2005, the Federal Garden Show was held here after Munich won the corresponding competition in 2000. For this purpose a large landscaped park was built in 2002 and opened to the public for recreational purposes by the Federal Garden Show as Riemer Park and third largest park in the city of Munich. With great effort, a lake was created in its center, which was known under the name Buga Lake ( officially Riemer lake). The lake is from east to west 800 m long, 150 m wide, 10 ha in size, up to 18 m deep and contains 100,000 m3 of water. It is an upscale Grundwassersee, which can be used for bathing. Because the water level is too low in the area and would also varies seasonally strong, a concrete trough was created, constant pumping each 40 liters of water per second into the three pumps for the lake. Thus, the flowing ground water on the concrete wall of the lake does not accumulate and sets basement in residential buildings under water, was, inter alia, a drain pipe laid under the lake. On the east bank there is a swimming beach, while on the west bank, where a pedestrian bridge over the lake leads, a sedimentation zone was created with aquatic plants. Immediately before the west bank, there are two additional, shallow sedimentation basin with water plants that are only 1100 and 800 m² in size.
