WOGA-complex at Lehniner Platz, Architectural ensemble in Wilmersdorf, Berlin.

The WOGA-complex is a New Objectivity ensemble by Erich Mendelsohn, built 1925–1931 on a four-hectare block bounded by Kurfürstendamm, Cicerostraße, Paulsborner Straße and Albrecht-Achilles-Straße. Two broad head buildings frame a small shopping street that runs toward a cross-standing block; behind it lie housing, green spaces and tennis courts. The Schaubühne occupies one head building.

The site was first planned as a pure housing estate on four hectares owned by publisher Hans Lachmann-Mosse, financed by a 1.5 million US dollar loan. Architect Jürgen Bachmann began the designs, but Erich Mendelsohn took over and built the complex between 1925 and 1931, adding the UFA premiere cinema Universum, the Kabarett der Komiker, the Café Leon, shops and flats. The cinema, badly damaged in the war, was later converted into the Schaubühne.

The Kabarett der Komiker opened opposite the cinema in 1928 as Berlin's first smoke theater, with a full stage, iron curtain, sprinkler system, fly loft and ventilation exchanging the air five times an hour. Its round hall held 816 seats grouped around tables. From 1935 to 1937, under Max Ehrlich, the Café Leon above it became the Jewish Cultural League's main venue.

The site is bounded by Kurfürstendamm to the north, Paulsborner Straße to the south, Cicerostraße to the west and Albrecht-Achilles-Straße to the east. Mendelsohn broke the block open with a small shop street running between the two head buildings toward a cross-standing structure; the residential yard with lawns and tennis courts lies behind it.

The apartment house was planned as a hotel, but the 1929 stock market crash led investors to choose housing instead. A connecting bridge to the Universum cinema survives from that plan, meant to let hotel guests reach the cinema without stepping into bad weather.
