Hermann Eduard Heubel (born February 12, 1854 in Hamburg ; † January 28, 1907 in Hamburg) was a builder and architect in Hamburg.

He learned the mason trade at TF Beger and then went to Berlin, where he attended the building academy for some time . He then did military service in the Jäger Battalion in Goslar and became a reserve officer.

Heubel married Louise Wilhelmine Jacobs in Krefeld on March 26, 1884 (born November 5, 1863 in Krefeld ; † May 3, 1957 in Hamburg). With her he had three sons and two daughters. He studied and kept a record of his family's genealogical questions.

He died suddenly and unexpectedly. At the celebration of Kaiser Wilhelm II's birthday in the "Military Comradeship" in Hamm, he was hit by a blow after he had just given an enthusiastic cheer to the Kaiser.

After his military service, Heubel joined the studio of Kayser & von Großheim in Berlin in order to be employed in the completion of the construction of the Lindenpassage and later came to the architect Rötger, for whom he took over the construction management of the palace in Posen . In 1878 he was recalled because the master carpenter W. Krumbhaar, who was a friend of his father, had died in Hamburg. He took over the business on September 2, 1882 together with the son of the deceased, Hermann Krumbhaar, and worked there initially on building projects based on the designs of other architects, and later based on his own designs.

At the Gerson -Haus Hamburg, Adolphsbrücke 9 / corner Neuerwall, there is a stone sign “Krumbhaar & Heubel” on the east facade as an indication of the construction. This was followed by the building of the Sparkasse on the Schauenburger Straße, the brick house Martinistraße 83 (also with a stone plaque on the house), the house of the Jenisch-Stift Tarpenbekstraße 93 and the 1900 built Heintzehof Alstertor 16 / Ferdinandstraße according to own designs.

Heubel also built the Neptunhaus at the harbor and the Bellevue 38 residential building (client: his brother-in-law, the shipowner Adolph Elvers). The construction business and architecture office "Krumbhaar & Heubel" was last based in Raboisen 5, the Eimbcke House built in 1905 with the impressive portal.

From 1879 Heubel was a member of the Architects and Engineers Association. In this association he was a member of the social committee and in 1890 contributed to the success of the meeting of the Association of German Architects and Engineering Associations in Hamburg .

Heubel became a Hamburg citizen on January 13, 1882, was a member of the Hamburg parliament from 1895 to 1907 , where he belonged to the “Left Center” faction, and a member of the administration of the trade schools. He was also significantly involved in the revision of the Building Police Act and as an employee of the suburban railway submission and also worked in numerous committees. Due to his publication “How must the new traffic route Hauptbahnhof-Rathausmarkt be laid out”, he was used in the construction of Mönckebergstrasse .
