Haselhorst: Gartenfelder Straße

Gartenfelder Straße marks a transition zone in Spandau between industrial sites and new urban development projects. Gartenfelder Straße is shaped above all by large plots, workshops, production or logistics uses and the roads or rail infrastructure that support them. In Gartenfelder Straße, the daily character emerges through work-related traffic, functional buildings and sharp transitions to smaller residential streets. Gartenfelder Straße lies in the borough of Spandau, about 11 km west of central Berlin. From Gartenfelder Straße toward Zitadellenweg and Nonnendammallee, density, land use and street character shift step by step rather than at a sharp edge. The character of Gartenfelder Straße is clearest along everyday routes between homes, public space and nearby destinations. Within Haselhorst, Gartenfelder Straße stands out through Berlin’s working landscape and its close contact with ordinary neighbourhood life.
