Oberschoeneweide in Berlin-Treptow-Koepenick: Industrial Heritage on the Spree
Oberschoeneweide was one of Berlin's major industrial districts in the early 20th century, anchored by the AEG Kabelwerk and other electrical manufacturing plants along the Spree. The massive factory buildings, many designed by prominent industrial architects, are now partly converted to university use by the Hochschule fuer Technik und Wirtschaft Berlin. About 23,650 people live in this Treptow-Koepenick district. The Spree riverfront here is undergoing gradual transformation from industrial to mixed-use, though the pace has been slower than in central Berlin.
