Karl Marx Avenue
This street was built by the GDR in East Berlin between 1952 and 1960 and runs between in Friedrichshain and Mitte. Originally known as Stalinalle, today the boulevard is named after Karl Marx, author of the Communist Manifesto. The boulevard was designed by the architects Hermann Henselmann, Hartmann, Hopp, Leucht, Paulick and Souradny and was intended to house normal workers in spacious and luxurious apartments. 89m wide and almost 2km long, the boulevard is lined with eight-storey wedding cake style buildings, in the socialist classicism style of the USSR. This is one of the grandest streets of East Berlin .
