The Carl-Neither park is located in the Berlin district Britz of Neukölln and extends substantially above the tunnel ceiling of the tunnel center Britz the Bundesautobahn 100 . It is named after the co-founder of the Neubritz colony, the master bookbinder Carl Weder .
history
Originally the A 100 was supposed to split the Britz district into two parts. To prevent this, a 1700 meter long tunnel was built, which was opened in July 2000. The roof of the tunnel was greened and turned into a park. It connects the Volkspark Hasenheide in the north and the Britzer Garten with the green areas around the Teltow Canal . The Berlin Senate Department for Urban Development commissioned the Seebauer, Wefers and Partners office with the realization of the approximately 6.6 hectare park, which was completed in three construction phases in 1999 and 2000. From 2003 to 2010 the art action Workshop for Change , organized by Seraphina Lenz , took place every year .
construction
The park is divided into a total of twelve different sections that run through from west to east. It starts with a playground with the theme of sea and beach . This is followed by a play area with walls to sit in and a pergola , followed by a garden of tranquility : benches are set up between hydrangeas and ferns to invite you to linger. This is followed by another playground with the motto mountains , which is connected to the Friedrichsbrunner Straße town square with a staircase that is supposed to be reminiscent of a grandstand. The sixth element is again a playground which, with a volleyball court and table tennis tables, is aimed more at teenagers than children. A garden of pine trees , which is enclosed with small walls , adjoins the square . Following is a larger garden area with shrubs and roses pacified , is followed by another playground, which is reminiscent of the earlier buildings in Neubritz. The tenth element is the town square Bendastraße, which is named after the eponymous street in the north of the element. To the east there are two orchards with bushes and roses. The conclusion is formed by the green classroom , which takes the form of an amphitheater and is intended to give a neighboring elementary school the opportunity to hold lessons outdoors if necessary.
