Neukölln: Maybachufer

Maybachufer in Neukölln is known for its canal-side setting, weekly markets and vibrant, multicultural street life. Maybachufer is shaped above all by the relationship between water, shorelines, access paths and the housing or open space immediately around them. In Maybachufer, the daily character emerges through views, recreational routes and abrupt transitions between built blocks and a more open waterside setting. Maybachufer lies in the borough of Neukölln, about 3.4 km southeast of central Berlin. Maybachufer merges gradually into Reuterplatz and Reichenberger Straße West; building scale, street activity and open space change before any clear boundary is felt. Around Maybachufer, even a few minutes on foot can bring noticeable changes in noise, greenery and access to everyday services. Within Neukölln, Maybachufer stands out through the stronger sense of space created by the water within the surrounding district.
