Gluckstraße 31 A-C, 35A-E, 39 A-D

The housing estate at Gluckstraße 31 A–C, 35 A–E and 39 A–D, comprising 71 two- to four-room flats (built in 1956), is situated in the Barmbek-Süd district. The district, with a population of around 36,000 in the Hamburg Nord borough, formed part of the Barmbek district alongside Barmbek Nord and Dulsberg until 1951. Almost every resident of Hamburg is familiar with a well-known building in the neighbourhood: the Mundsburg Towers, high-rises around 100 metres tall, are visible from afar. They house owner-occupied flats and offices. The Hamburger Meile, a well-known shopping centre, is situated in the immediate vicinity. The Mundsburg complex also includes a multiplex cinema. Opposite lies the Ernst-Deutsch-Theater, one of the Hanseatic city’s most renowned theatres. But Barmbek South also has plenty to offer in terms of nature. If you fancy it, you can hire a canoe or a pedal boat on the Osterbek Canal. For a bit of relaxation, the Bartholomäus-Therme is ideal, with its wonderful sauna facilities. Children are not permitted here. Barmbek Süd is connected to the public transport network via three underground stations (Dehnhaide, Hamburger Straße and Mundsburg, on the border with Uhlenhorst). And it’s just a few steps to the Dulsberg S-Bahn station at Friedrichsberg (S1/S11). The HVV also operates numerous bus routes.
