Breitscheidplatz

The current plans for Breitscheidplatz are intended to upgrade a site of both city-wide and national significance, whose development as part of central western Berlin must be seen in relation to the modernisation of the eastern city centre.

* The square's specific Charlottenburgian characteristics are to be strengthened and its special urban profile highlighted.
* That is why both the spaces and the edges of Breitscheidplatz must be strengthened.
* The energy of the Kurfürstendamm will be channelled along a new, attractively-designed Breitscheidplatz to as far as Budapester Strasse.
* It is to be interwoven more clearly with neighbouring urban districts to the north and southeast.
