MonumentLocals' pick

A garden-city take on the Gemeindebau: just over 1,000 flats by Robert Oerley and Karl Krist (1927-1930) around five large courtyards, each named after the trees planted in it (Ahornhof, Akazienhof, Birkenhof, Fliederhof, Ulmenhof). Low blocks, glazed verandas and a relief medallion of Washington.
