 The north town in Loerrach
|
|
The northern residential area of the core city is called Nordstadt in the Baden-Württemberg district town of Lörrach . The approximately one square kilometer residential area was built due to the increase in industries and the resettlement waves and the associated increase in population after the end of the Second World War .
history
Until the Second World War, the area that is now part of the northern part of the city was practically unused wasteland. The circus wagons lined up along Gretherstrasse and Haagener Strasse and the circus tent was pitched in the open space.
At the beginning of the 1950s, the first residential area in the northern part of the city was developed on Albert-Hitzig-, Ernst-Schultz-, Max-Läuger- and Adalbert-Stifter-Straße. In 2010, large parts of the northern part of the city were connected to the local heating network, which is fed by the energy from the block- type thermal power station in Wölblinstrasse.
Position and extent
The north city is one of four quarters in the Lörrach core city. The northern part of the city is only about half a kilometer away from the city center.
The north of the city is bordered in the east by the Wiesentalbahn , in the south by Gretherstrasse - which is a section of Landesstrasse 141 - to Berliner Platz . From there, the district boundary continues to the meadow , which limits its western extension. This means that part of the federal highway 317 belongs to Nordstadt, which forms a major intersection with the L 141 at Tumringer Bridge. In the north, the border of the northern city runs right through the Grüttpark and the Grüttsee located there.
Since the northern part of the city extends exclusively over the Wiesental, there are no natural elevations. The height of the quarter moves between 285 m near the bank of the meadow and 300 m above sea level. NN in the actual settlement area. The commercial canal branches off from the meadow at the Tumringer Wehr hydropower plant, and begins in the north of the city and runs through the entire urban area to Switzerland, before flowing back into the meadow shortly before Basel.
traffic
The L 141, which runs on the southern edge of the northern part of the city, forms one of the most important traffic routes through the city across the valley axis. Another busy connection is the Black Forest Road, which bridges the railroad tracks on the eastern edge and leads to the Homburg settlement. The rest of the street network in the district consists almost entirely of residential streets .
The bus line 16 from Weil am Rhein to Hauingen runs through the quarter and serves, among other things, the school complex with one stop. Bus line 7 between Salzert and Nordstadt runs in a spacious loop directly through the residential area.
description
The northern part of the city is mainly dominated by smaller residential buildings and low-rise residential complexes. The rectangular street pattern, which, with the exception of Wintersbuckstraße, runs in a straight line, is characteristic of the quarter. With 65 residential units per hectare, the northern part of the city is in the middle category density of the city.
Commercial areas are mainly located on the eastern edge of the railway line and to the north in Gewerbestrasse, Tumringer Strasse and along Wiesentalstrasse. The main customs office in Lörrach is located in the northern part of the city.
In the southern part, the Stadion residential complex with 220 residential units was built between 1990 and 1994 . To the south of this is the Basel skyscraper, Wintersbuckstrasse, which is almost 47 meters high. It is one of the tallest buildings in the city and is the second tallest residential high- rise. The house of care for the elderly (Chrischonaheim) operated by the Evangelical City Mission Freiburg is located in the vicinity of the Basel high-rise.

To the west of the Basel skyscraper is the complex with the vocational, commercial and other schools in Wintersbuckstrasse, which is sometimes also referred to as the “educational mile”. Furthermore, in the northern part of the school complex there is the Albert Schweitzer Community School with a primary school in the network and the Pestalozzi School. The media center of the district of Lörrach is also housed in the educational complex . The Lörrach University of Education, which existed from 1966 to 1984, spun off its library as the Lörrach Regional Scientific Library , which was located in the northern part of the city until summer 2008.
