Esso-Häuser, former building group in Hamburg, Germany
The Esso-Häuser was a residential complex in central Hamburg consisting of several modern buildings. The ensemble shaped the urban landscape with its contemporary architecture and provided housing for numerous residents.
The complex emerged as part of modern urban development reflecting the postwar rebuilding spirit. The buildings were later demolished, transforming the cityscape once again.
Since the buildings no longer exist, the complex can only be explored today through historical photos and documents. Those interested in architecture can learn about the complex's history in city archives and museums.
