The Baghdad Sustainable Forests masterplan, designed by Gensler in partnership with local firms, transforms a vast former military site polluted with waste into a resilient, green urban district. Spanning over 10 million square meters, it introduces mixed-use neighborhoods surrounded by themed forests focused on culture, wellness, sports, and family activities. Key elements include a tall landmark tower, restored riverfront access, and extensive parks with more than a million trees to improve air quality and capture carbon.
