Schöneberg: Schöneberger Linse

Schöneberger Linse is a new development area near Südkreuz, combining modern housing with office spaces and urban infrastructure. Schöneberger Linse is shaped above all by the continuity of residential streets, courtyards, entrances and short routes to everyday services. In Schöneberger Linse, the daily character emerges through the relationship between building scale, street greenery and the small spaces used repeatedly by residents. Schöneberger Linse lies in the borough of Tempelhof-Schöneberg, about 5.7 km southwest of central Berlin. Schöneberger Linse merges gradually into Cheruskerstraße and Grazer Platz; building scale, street activity and open space change before any clear boundary is felt. The immediate streets and open spaces give Schöneberger Linse a recognisable local identity of its own. Within Schöneberg, Schöneberger Linse stands out through the quality of ordinary daily life rather than a single landmark.
