Monte Laa, Modern residential complex in Favoriten, Vienna, Austria.

Monte Laa is a residential and office district in Vienna's Favoriten, built 2001–2008 on a deck over the A23 motorway, between Absberggasse and Urselbrunnengasse. Albert Wimmer's master plan placed buildings with around 200,000 m² of usable floor area on a 90,000 m² site. The 12,400 m² Monte-Laa-Park by Martha Schwartz runs as an axis through the development, with green lawn ramps dividing the sections.

Monte Laa was built between 2001 and 2008 on a deck over the A23 Südosttangente, covered along 200 m by a reinforced-concrete frame called the Absbergtunnel. The master plan came from architect Albert Wimmer, developed by Strauss & Partner Development and built by Porr. The campus was begun with a groundbreaking on 14 May 2007; a kindergarten for about 250 children opened in summer 2008 and a 16-class primary school followed in 2010.

The name Monte Laa is the Viennese nickname for the neighbouring Laaer Berg, on whose slope toward Reumannplatz the district lies. The 12,400 m² Monte-Laa-Park, designed by Boston landscape architect Martha Schwartz, forms the axis from Urselbrunnengasse to Absberggasse, linking the housing blocks with Campus Monte Laa and the Laaer Wald recreation area.

Monte Laa lies north of Laaer-Berg-Straße in Favoriten, between Absberggasse and Urselbrunnengasse. The Monte-Laa-Park runs as an axis from Urselbrunnengasse to Absberggasse, linking the housing blocks with Campus Monte Laa and continuing toward the Laaer Wald recreation area. Paths in the park have a gradient of at most 6 percent, so wheelchair users can cross it without difficulty, and strong colours help people with impaired vision find their way.

Monte Laa is built on a concrete frame structure called the Absbergtunnel, which covers 200 metres of the A23 motorway. The foundation piles reach a depth of 40 metres, and the base structure is designed to withstand explosion pressure and fire loads from the tunnel below.
