Biesdorf: Süd

Biesdorf Süd is a residential area with detached houses, gardens and a suburban character in eastern Berlin. At Biesdorf Süd, the local character comes from lower building density, detached homes, private gardens and comparatively little through traffic. The everyday rhythm of Biesdorf Süd is shaped by larger plots, mature planting and a slower rhythm than in Berlin’s inner-city blocks. Biesdorf Süd lies in the borough of Marzahn-Hellersdorf, about 11 km east of central Berlin. From Biesdorf Süd toward Kaulsdorf Süd and Karlshorst Nord, density, land use and street character shift step by step rather than at a sharp edge. Around Biesdorf Süd, even a few minutes on foot can bring noticeable changes in noise, greenery and access to everyday services. The immediate streets and open spaces give Biesdorf Süd a recognisable local identity of its own. This gives Biesdorf Süd a distinctive quality: the sense of privacy and local continuity found at the metropolitan edge.
