Reinickendorf: Klixstraße

Klixstraße is a planned residential area with substantial open space in the borough of Reinickendorf. The local streetscape is chiefly defined by apartment buildings and compact residential blocks; planned housing, courtyards and clearly structured open spaces; major roads, traffic flows and visible transport infrastructure; as well as parks, mature trees and everyday green space. How Klixstraße is used over the course of the day depends on the relationship between building scale, street greenery and the small spaces used repeatedly by residents. Klixstraße lies about 8.7 km northwest of central Berlin. The transitions from Klixstraße toward Waldidyll/Flughafensee and Meller Bogen are gradual, marked by changes in building form, traffic and greenery. The character of Klixstraße is clearest along everyday routes between homes, public space and nearby destinations. Together, these elements make the quality of ordinary daily life rather than a single landmark central to the identity of Klixstraße.
