Weiße Stadt

Built in Reinickendorf between 1929 and 1931 under Martin Wagner's overall direction, with Otto Rudolf Salvisberg, Bruno Ahrends and Wilhelm Büning each taking sections, which is why the blocks vary in handling while the white render holds them together. Salvisberg's bridge building over Aroser Allee is the piece most often photographed. The BVG bus stop on the site still carries the estate's name, stop 100411.
