The district connects these varied parts through a network of streets, trams, and local infrastructure that serve the daily needs of its residents.
The district began in 1838 when Isaac Lowy purchased land from the Károlyi family to establish a settlement that grew from a handful of Jewish families. Over the following decades, the area developed into an urban center with growing commerce and manufacturing activity.
The Queen of Heavens Church, Synagogue of Újpest, and Water Tower stand as architectural landmarks representing the religious and social development of the district.

The Beschorner workshop, based in this district, created bronze sculptures that can be found in prominent locations across Budapest. This metalworking tradition left an enduring mark on the city's artistic landscape.
