Rudow: Zittauer Straße

Zittauer Straße lies in a residential area with apartment buildings and a structured urban layout. Zittauer Straße is shaped above all by the continuity of residential streets, courtyards, entrances and short routes to everyday services. In Zittauer Straße, the daily character emerges through the relationship between building scale, street greenery and the small spaces used repeatedly by residents. Zittauer Straße lies in the borough of Neukölln, about 13 km south of central Berlin. Zittauer Straße merges gradually into Waßmannsdorfer Chaussee and Gropiusstadt Süd-Ost; building scale, street activity and open space change before any clear boundary is felt. The character of Zittauer Straße is clearest along everyday routes between homes, public space and nearby destinations. Around Zittauer Straße, even a few minutes on foot can bring noticeable changes in noise, greenery and access to everyday services. Within Rudow, Zittauer Straße stands out through the quality of ordinary daily life rather than a single landmark.
