Großwohnsiedlung Waldsassener Straße

Großwohnsiedlung Waldsassener Straße, Housing estate in Marienfelde, Germany.

Großwohnsiedlung Waldsassener Straße is a high-rise housing estate in Berlin-Marienfelde, built between 1970 and 1974 to a layout by Hans Bandel. It holds 4,200 apartments, and its tallest building rises 27 storeys. The Waldsassener Straße and the Tirschenreuther Ring are its main access roads.

Construction of this housing estate took place from 1970 to 1974 following architect Hans Bandel's urban design vision. It was built as Berlin's response to the post-war housing shortage in the western parts of the city.

The name Waldsassener Straße and Tirschenreuther Ring refer to towns in Bavaria's Upper Palatinate, the region of origin of many residents who moved here in the 1970s. The Gustav-Heinemann-Oberschule at Tirschenreuther Ring 48, opened in 1974, was named in 1977 after the West German president; asbestos found in the building forced the school to move to a replacement site south of the estate in 1990.

The estate is reached mainly via Waldsassener Straße and Tirschenreuther Ring, and the grounds between the towers can be walked through freely. The Gustav-Heinemann-Oberschule stands at Tirschenreuther Ring 48, and the school moved to a replacement site at the southern end of Waldsassener Straße in 1990 before later returning to a new building at its old location.

The Gustav-Heinemann-Oberschule at Tirschenreuther Ring 48 opened in 1974 as the "2. Oberschule Berlin-Tempelhof", a ten-form integrated comprehensive school with a gymnasial upper stage. After asbestos was found in the building, teaching moved in 1990 to a replacement site just south of the estate; the school has since returned to a new building at its old location.
