Zehlendorf: Fischerhüttenstraße

Fischerhüttenstraße lies in a residential area in southwestern Berlin, characterized by villas, greenery and proximity to forests. Fischerhüttenstraße is shaped above all by the continuity of residential streets, courtyards, entrances and short routes to everyday services. In Fischerhüttenstraße, the daily character emerges through the relationship between building scale, street greenery and the small spaces used repeatedly by residents. Fischerhüttenstraße lies in the borough of Steglitz-Zehlendorf, about 14 km southwest of central Berlin. Fischerhüttenstraße merges gradually into Krumme Lanke and Zehlendorf Mitte; building scale, street activity and open space change before any clear boundary is felt. The immediate streets and open spaces give Fischerhüttenstraße a recognisable local identity of its own. Within Zehlendorf, Fischerhüttenstraße stands out through the quality of ordinary daily life rather than a single landmark.
