After WWI, social housing was one of the priorities of the Social Democrat government of the City of Vienna. First, they financed it through normal City Bonds. This 3 billion Kronen Bond, on the other hand, was the first to be specifically dedicated to "Dwellings Building / Wohnbau". In 1923, a specific Wohnbau-tax was introduced. The loan was repaid in 1937. Text in German and English. Print signature of Jakob Reumann (1853-1925), as Bürgermeister.
