Tempelhof: Wittekindstraße

Wittekindstraße lies in a residential area with apartment buildings and a structured neighborhood environment. At Wittekindstraße, the local character comes from the continuity of residential streets, courtyards, entrances and short routes to everyday services. The everyday rhythm of Wittekindstraße is shaped by the relationship between building scale, street greenery and the small spaces used repeatedly by residents. Wittekindstraße lies in the borough of Tempelhof-Schöneberg, about 6.6 km south of central Berlin. The transitions from Wittekindstraße toward Lindenhofsiedlung and Bosepark are gradual, marked by changes in building form, traffic and greenery. The immediate streets and open spaces give Wittekindstraße a recognisable local identity of its own. The character of Wittekindstraße is clearest along everyday routes between homes, public space and nearby destinations. This gives Wittekindstraße a distinctive quality: the quality of ordinary daily life rather than a single landmark.
