A
NEIGHBOURHOOD
THAT INSPIRES
Several leading architectural firms have collaborated to design a sustainable, multi-generational neighbourhood with ambitious vision: in addition to new residences, the plans include spaces for recreation and dining, retail, commercial use, education, and culture.
COMPLETELY RELAXED
The meeting point in front of the historic Fliegerhalle offers not only dining options but also a large playground.
DONE IN NO TIME
A neighbourhood centre, an fresh food market, and a café are planned in Fliegergasse.
CONVENIENTLY SUPPLIED
Medical practices, shops, and service providers will also move into the buildings surrounding the Fliegervilla.
ROOTED IN ITS HERITAGE
The architecture draws on the site’s history and reinterprets it for contemporary urban living.
LUSHLY PLANTED
Das Quartier kann atmen, großzügige Grünflächen lassen es angenehm luftig wirken.
Living
Diverse living options in the quarter:
- Owner-occupied apartments
- Rental apartments
- Subsidised housing
Working
Where science and research thrive:
The new commercial district seamlessly expands the Adlershof campus.
Shared Spaces
At the western end, the quarter’s historic centre offers a nursery, shops, eateries, a medical centre and the local community hub. A large car park is taking shape further east.

ON BOARD
Setting the gold standard for sustainability
Segelflieger Quartier meets the highest standards in ecology, climate performance and sociocultural quality. These standards have been reviewed and confirmed by the German Sustainable Building Council.
Energy efficiency and resource-conscious construction, the sponge city principle and generous open spaces – these and many other aspects work seamlessly together, making Segelflieger Quartier a flagship project for sustainable urban development.
This sustainable quarter has been awarded the DGNB Gold preliminary certificate.
Rainwater that can seep away – even through the paving
How does the quarter cope with summer heat or heavy rainfall? Intelligent water management comes into play: water can infiltrate and evaporate—via green roofs and plenty of green spaces. Even walkways and squares play a role. They are paved with a certified multi-layer climate stone that acts like a mini cooling system: the top layer reflects sunlight, reduces noise and neutralises pollutants. Its core stores rainwater and releases it slowly, while the bottom layer retains extra moisture and channels it into the ground.

THE FUTURE
The Segelflieger Quartier is taking shape on historic ground: in 1909, Germany’s first commercially operated airfield opened here. Thousands of people witnessed daring early flight manoeuvres. Now, the spirit of pioneering is being reignited.
