Neukölln: Glasower Straße

Glasower Straße marks a transition between residential areas and industrial zones near the southern edge of Berlin. Glasower Straße is shaped above all by large plots, workshops, production or logistics uses and the roads or rail infrastructure that support them. In Glasower Straße, the daily character emerges through work-related traffic, functional buildings and sharp transitions to smaller residential streets. Glasower Straße lies in the borough of Neukölln, about 6.4 km south of central Berlin. Glasower Straße merges gradually into Jahnstraße and Schulenburgpark; building scale, street activity and open space change before any clear boundary is felt. Around Glasower Straße, even a few minutes on foot can bring noticeable changes in noise, greenery and access to everyday services. Within Neukölln, Glasower Straße stands out through Berlin’s working landscape and its close contact with ordinary neighbourhood life.
