Neukölln: Schillerpromenade Nord

Schillerpromenade Nord forms part of Neukölln’s historic residential area, known for Gründerzeit buildings and proximity to Tempelhofer Feld. The defining local feature of Schillerpromenade Nord is the surviving older street pattern, plot structure and building lines that remain legible beneath later development. How Schillerpromenade Nord is used over the course of the day depends on the overlap of historic fabric with present-day housing, shops and local institutions. Schillerpromenade Nord lies in the borough of Neukölln, about 4.6 km south of central Berlin. Schillerpromenade Nord merges gradually into Hasenheide and Schillerpromenade Süd; building scale, street activity and open space change before any clear boundary is felt. The immediate streets and open spaces give Schillerpromenade Nord a recognisable local identity of its own. Together, these elements make the continuity of the original settlement within modern Berlin central to the identity of Schillerpromenade Nord.
