Westend: Königin-Elisabeth-Straße

Königin-Elisabeth-Straße lies in a green residential area in Westend, known for villas and proximity to Grunewald. At Königin-Elisabeth-Straße, the local character comes from lower building density, detached homes, private gardens and comparatively little through traffic. The everyday rhythm of Königin-Elisabeth-Straße is shaped by larger plots, mature planting and a slower rhythm than in Berlin’s inner-city blocks. Königin-Elisabeth-Straße lies in the borough of Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf, about 8.8 km west of central Berlin. The transitions from Königin-Elisabeth-Straße toward Fürstenplatz and Eichkamp are gradual, marked by changes in building form, traffic and greenery. The immediate streets and open spaces give Königin-Elisabeth-Straße a recognisable local identity of its own. This gives Königin-Elisabeth-Straße a distinctive quality: the sense of privacy and local continuity found at the metropolitan edge.
