The Finger Plan is an urban plan from 1947 which provides a strategy for the development of Greater Copenhagen, Denmark.
According to the plan, Copenhagen is to develop along five 'funger', centred on S-train commuter rail lines, which extend from the 'palm', that is the dense urban fabric of central Copenhagen.
In between the fingers, green wedges are supposed to provide land for agriculture and recreational purposes
