history
In 1899 the entire area was still vacant. In 1905 the Steglitz cycling track was built on Körnerstrasse. A plan from 1907 shows the location of the cycling track as a sports park in Steglitz in today's Bismarckviertel. The layout of the streets between Lauenburger and Körnerstraße gives an idea of the shape.
Between the years 1908 and 1910 the streets were named (see list of streets), the site was developed and the first houses were built. The First World War prevented complete development. In the vicinity of the main line , building losses were high due to bomb hits from World War II . The development program of the 1950s closed the first gaps. One of the last vacant properties on the corner of Feuerbachstrasse and Lauenburger Strasse was opened up in 2013 by a senior citizens' residence.

Transport links
Between 1912 and 1914, a trolleybus ran between Steglitz station (today: Rathaus Steglitz station), Bergstrasse, Bismarckstrasse and later Altmarkstrasse and Thorvaldsenstrasse to Knausplatz. From 1914 to March 1961, Bismarckstrasse was used for the full length of the tram line 87 (until 1923) and 88 (from 1923), which was then replaced by the A 75 bus line . For decades, the A 2 and A 2 E and A 81 bus routes ran through Feuerbachstrasse and Bismarckstrasse . Currently, route 181 runs there. The A 68 bus has been running through Bergstrasse since October 1959 - currently it is route 170. Through Feuerbach- and Thorwaldsenstraße currently runs the line M76 - formerly 76 and 176 - and since 1995 the express bus line X76, whose forerunner was the express bus line A S2 from 1957 to 1966 .
