''[[Gemeindebau]]ten'' are [[public housing]] complexes owned by the city, primarily constructed during the period of [[Red Vienna]] in the early 20th century, as part of a large-scale social housing program aimed at providing affordable homes to working-class families. Famous examples include [[Karl-Marx-Hof]]. As symbols of [[socialism]], these buildings are often named after socialist or [[Social democracy|social-democratic]] politicians such as [[Friedrich Engels]], [[Ferdinand Lassalle]], [[Olof Palme]], and [[Victor Adler]]. Additionally, some are named after other notable figures, including [[George C. Marshall|George Marshall]], [[Dag Hammarskjöld]], and [[George Washington]]. The ''Gemeindebauten'' often featured additional community facilities, such as municipal libraries, daycare centers, laundromats, indoor pools, and shopping centers. The classic ''Gemeindebauten'' from the [[interwar period]] are typically designed in block perimeter development, with a large entrance gate leading to an inner courtyard, featuring a green space with playgrounds. They continue to serve as affordable housing to this day.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Gemeindebau |url=https://www.geschichtewiki.wien.gv.at/Gemeindebau |access-date=2025-03-04 |website=www.geschichtewiki.wien.gv.at |language=de}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Wiens wichtigste Gemeindebauten |url=https://www.wien.info/de/kunst-kultur/rotes-wien/gemeindebauten-346722 |access-date=2025-03-04 |website=wien.info |language=de}}</ref>
