history
18. – 19. century
Around 1700 the street was called Bei der Pomeranzenbrücke . It got its name after the Pomeranzenbrücke or Große Pomeranzenbrücke (later: Friedrichsbrücke ) located on it. The bridge, in turn, was named after the nearby bitter orange house. The street section was also called Am Walle , Garrison-Kirchen-Straße (1760) or Am Königswall at this time .
The entire length of the Neue Friedrichstrasse was created after the wall of the Berlin Fortress was demolished around 1746. It was named in honor of Friedrich II. It surrounded the city of Old Berlin on the north and east with the parallel Königsgraben . It reached from the large Pomeranzenbrücke past the Spandauer Brücke and Königsbrücke to Stralauer Strasse at the Waisenbrücke .
Since the 20th century
At the end of the Second World War , most of the buildings in and around the street were badly damaged, for example the stock exchange , the ruins of which remained behind a site fence for years on the corner of Burgstrasse and today's Anna-Louisa-Karsch-Strasse.
On May 10, 1951, Neue Friedrichstrasse was named Littenstrasse (after Hans Litten ). The full length of the street continued from Friedrichsbrücke to Stralauer Straße.
On November 15, 1978, the westernmost section of Littenstrasse, stretching from Friedrichsbrücke to Spandauer Strasse, was incorporated into Burgstrasse , which was then shortened by the southern section and running along the Spree .
On the north side of the street are the plots with the numbers 1-9 and on the south side those with the numbers 2-4. The numbering begins at Friedrichsbrücke and ends at the intersection of Rosenstrasse.

The Berlin Institute for Health Research is located in the building at number 2 .
On the north side there are residential and commercial buildings. In today's number 9, the former school and preacher's house of the formerly neighboring garrison church is remarkable . The children of soldiers stationed in Berlin received free lessons here almost 200 years ago. It was named Frommel House after a garrison pastor .
In the middle of the 19th century, the quarter south of today's street section - next to Behrenstrasse - became a financial center of Berlin, beginning with the construction of the new stock exchange in the immediate vicinity. In 1906 the commercial college was founded here. The economics faculty of the Humboldt University has been based here since 1946. In the mid-1930s there were construction work to establish business associations in the block between the north side of the street and the tram viaduct .
The new buildings of the Spreepalais are also located on the southern side of the street . From the intersection of Spandauer Strasse, the Hackesche Quartier was built on the north side according to plans by the architects Müller / van Reimann, for which the topping-out ceremony was held at the end of 2009 . The corporate headquarters of GASAG , the advertising agency Scholz & Friends as well as a hotel and various other office users moved in here.
