1730. Berlin Reinickendorf Aroser Allee

Dear Peter,

(...) Si nosotros encontráramos también una pura,
contenida, estrecha, humana franja de huerto, nuestra,
entre el río y la roca (...)
(Rainer Maria Rilke "Las Elegías de Duíno" 1922)

1718. Berlin-Reinickendorf-Ost, Aroser-allee mit Brückenhaus

Dear Sybi,

In addition to the Siemensstadt housing estate and the

"Horseshoe" settlement in Britz among others, the 

"White Town" at the village of Reinickendorf was one 

of the most remarkable functionalist residential 

communities built in Berlin in the 1930s.

The centerpiece of this 60,000 square meter estate was 

the bridge-like building across the Aroser Allee built 

by Otto Rudolf Salvisberg.

Cheers,
R
