The Buschallee is a traffic-rich road train in the Berlin district of Weissensee between the Berliner Allee and the district border with Lichtenberg (district Alt-Hohenschönhausen ). The avenue developed from a connection path between the manor districts of Hohenschönhausen and Weißensee, which was documented in the 18th century, but its route was changed in later development plans.

Course and history

The street continues as Suermondtstraße. The houses are numbered in horseshoe with no. 1 on the south side from Berliner Allee up to no. 49, on the north side back with numbers 50 to 110. On the north side with no. 50a there are tennis courts. A gap in the row development between parcel 93a and 94 stands for the unrealized project of a road 218 . Gartenstrasse crosses Sulzfelder Strasse between no. 7b / 8 and 104/105. It goes south between No. 23 and the system in front of No. 23a (Brillat-Savarin-Schule, Oberstufenzentrum Gastgewerbe) and between 30/31 and 68-71 crosses the two-lane Hansastraße, also with median, into which the tram line to Falkenberg turns. This latter intersection is called Platz 30. Here the former (Hohen-) Schönhauser Strasse merged into the course of the existing Buschallee. In addition, a connection to road 220 (Piesporter Strasse) was planned to the north . At the northwest corner of the intersection with Hansastraße there is a loop of the tram to the west of Buschallee.

The course of the district border at the east end of Buschallee is subordinate to the roadsides. On the south side, the Buschallee extends to the western edge of the Orankestrands (Lichtenberger Weg), the width of which belongs to the Buschallee and the district continues on the northern edge of Suermondtstrasse. The original traffic route from the village of Weißensee to the village of Hohenschönhausen in the 1870s was nameless and did not follow the current route. A connection unofficially called "Schönhauser Straße" (officially named Hohenschönhauser Straße after fortification in 1871) went from the Falkenberger over the Gartenstraße to the east, supplemented by a middle path (in the course of the Buschallee) and the Orankeweg (from Lichtenberger Straße) over the Open space at the Pfühlen In 1906, a street south of the church between Berliner and Gartenstrasse and then a course corresponding to the (later) Buschallee (south of Schönhauser Strasse) is projected in the street grid. In 1916 the new street layout at the western connection to Berliner Allee appeared as street 118 in the sources based on official documents . Between Hansastraße and Berliner Allee, rows of living quarters for working-class families were built from 1918 onwards according to designs by well-known architects such as Bruno Taut and Franz Hoffmann , who are listed buildings.

Buschallee has two lanes. In 1938 a tram line was laid on the existing central area; the initially created mainly double-track trunk line with the possibility of repositioning was initially extended to Hohenschönhausen as a single track in 1951. In 1984 the continuous double-track expansion followed. A turning loop has been located on the Buschallee 69 property since 1966 . Buschallee is one of the higher-level road connections in the Berlin road system.

The avenue was given its name in 1915 , with which the then district administrator in the Niederbarnim Felix Busch district was honored during his lifetime.

Some selected buildings along the Buschallee

The houses on Buschallee 8-49 and 50-107 (south and north sides) including their continuation in Gartenstraße, Sulzfelder Straße and Kniprodeallee were commissioned by Gehag (non-profit home, savings and construction company) in the years 1928 to Built in 1930 based on plans by Bruno Taut . The four-storey rows of houses stretch along Buschallee for around one kilometer. However, they were structurally changed in the following years so that the facades were given a rough plaster and the facade design was also simplified. On the north side, the top floor was even impaired in its original form by the installation of additional apartments. The Tautsche architectural style corresponds to the modern , the loggias on the street side are wide and box-like and are reminiscent of the Taut buildings on Erich-Weinert-Straße. The original color scheme of the facades was also changed during the GDR era, but was partially restored after renovations in the late 1990s. The loggias on the north side are beige, while the apartment blocks are dark red and gray green. The Taut building row on the south side, on the other hand, also has white surfaces, but the facades on the courtyard side are also gray-green. The corner buildings of the blocks are stepped and offer inserted one-story shop extensions. The residential buildings Buschallee 108/110 and the development continued in Berliner Allee were built around 1914 based on a design by Carl James Bühring . Most of the residential buildings selected here are on the Berlin List of Historic Buildings.

More on the road

It is worth mentioning a sports stadium in the Hansastraße area that was opened in 1920, the Buschallee stadium . In the north-western area, where Buschallee merges into Suermondtstraße, lies the Fauler See nature reserve . The allotment gardens 'Sunshine' and 'For the free hour', which are protected as garden monuments, also border the Buschallee .
