The Falkoniergasse is a 90-meter-long street in the Berlin local situation Friedrichswerder in the Mitte district that existed until the year 1974th In the course of the redevelopment of the city quarter around the Friedrichswerder Church , it was redesigned by resolution of the district assembly . The Falkoniergasse ran or runs between Werderscher Rosenstrasse in the north and Werderschem Markt in the south. It crosses the new city quarter of the Crown Prince Gardens , completed in 2017 , whose name refers to the nearby Kronprinzenpalais .
history
With the construction of the Friedrichswerder around 1660, the Falkoniergasse was created, in which falconers and their birds were housed. It only had eight house numbers. The alley and its residents were considered an "impoverished" area from the start. During the Second World War , in contrast to the neighboring houses - e. B. Friedrichswerder Church and Berlin Building Academy - hardly destroyed.
As part of the modernization of East Berlin in 1968, the entire Friedrichswerder was to be redesigned. So all buildings except the Friedrichswerder Church on Werderscher Markt were demolished. The Foreign Ministry of the GDR was set up on parts of the area . The Falkoniergasse 1974 was deconsecrated and then served as a parking lot . In 1999, the first plans were made to re-create the historic street in Falkoniergasse and to reconstruct the area in the historical areas. After the Berlin Senate announced a bidding process, the overall urban planning concept by the architects Graetz, Nöfer and Tyrra was awarded the contract in November 2000.
New installation
The street name was reassigned on January 27, 2007, but the street is neither completely laid out nor already signposted (as of February 2014). As a result, two companies failed to acquire all the necessary land.
After the two companies Apellas and Bauwert separated in December 2009, an architectural competition for the Kronprinzengärten district in the new Falkoniergasse was launched in summer 2010 , the results of which were announced in February 2011.
Future development
Similar to the neighboring townhouse project on Caroline-von-Humboldt-Platz, small residential buildings are to be built. In contrast to the development there, the buildings should be designed in a uniform white and the two lower floors should be intended for retail . The houses will not be based on the pre-war buildings, but on the neighboring buildings ( commandant's house and Kronprinzenpalais ). The Falkoniergasse is to receive black and white marble . Building start was in 2012. The excavation of a 15 meter deep excavation for the plant two-storey underground car parks led to foreseeable damage to five meters of new buildings remote Friedrichswerder Church, the stylistic masterpiece Karl Friedrich Schinkel , which after severe war damage in the 1980s as Sculpture Museum of the State Museums had been rebuilt. As a result of the falling components of pillars and vaults, museum use had to be given up; Cracks in the floor testified to a fundamental endangerment of the precious building, which could be stabilized by pumping cement into the foundations. Restoration work that has started is provisional in that the construction of luxury apartments on its eastern side threatens similar dangers.
After a one-year construction freeze, a completion date is planned for 2017 [obsolete] .
