Dierkow West and East

The need for housing for the employees of the expanding arms industry (shipyard, aircraft plants ) required an expansion of the residential areas in Rostock. Dierkow -West was built as a planned settlement from 1934. The construction of Dierkow East began 1935. On generous plots, which allowed for self-sufficiency in fruit, vegetables and small livestock, single-family and semi-detached houses were built mainly of brick. The street names in East Dierkow wear mostly Low German pet names that are named after German writers in Dierkow -West. 1948 Dierkow -West was connected to the tram network. This line was replaced by buses in 1974. Only with the construction of Dierkow -Neu was quite Dierkow again accessible by trams.

Dierkow - New

Due to the increasing decay of the old town areas and the constant influx External existed in the 1980s, a large demand for housing, which should be satisfied by further housing estates. In the northeast of Rostock a plate area has been developed and built from 1984 to 1987 with mainly six -storey blocks east of the settlement Dierkow. Through the "trick" to refer to the first floor as a zeroth floor, you could dispense with elevators, which were actually required from the sixth floor. The public transport connection is made with the tram and S -Bahn.
