history
The massive four- and six-storey brick apartment building from the interwar period of the 1920s was built as a cooperative building by the Cuxhavener Bauhütte .
The house was named in 1964 after the Lord Mayor of Cuxhaven (1946 to 1952 and 1956 to 1966) Karl Olfers (1888–1968) ( SPD ). From 1925 to 1933, Olfers was managing director of the housing construction company Cuxhavener Bauhütte, which was founded by the labor movement . The Bauhütte built many residential buildings with the clinker facades that characterize Cuxhaven, including Olfers Eck.
The mostly four-storey, clinkered multi-family houses Delftstrasse 1 to 13, 15 and 17 as well as Abendrothstrasse 6 and 8 are also under monument protection and come from the same period.
The Delftstrasse was named after the Delftstrom drainage channel.
