Once the sight of the inspirational Berlin Airlift, it was quite a dilemma of what to do with the space when they finally closed the antiquated airport down. Luxury condos, a space for refugees, or a recreation area? Lucky for the people of Berlin, it was decided by public vote to turn the enormous 386 acre field into a public park.

Neighborhoods
This neighborhood is the current darling of new immigrants and a great place to base yourself for some of the best nightlife in ever-changing Berlin.
After years of being billed as up-and-coming, Berlin's Neukölln neighborhood is in the midst of wild gentrification. Rents have raised considerably and the locals have changed dramatically since it was romanticized by David Bowie with his song "Neuköln".
Still, this neighborhood is the current darling of new immigrants and a great place to base yourself for some of the best nightlife in ever-changing Berlin. Pick up your camera and get ready to instagram the best of this bezirk, including its history, highlights, and how to get there.
History of Berlin's Neukölln Neighborhood
Located in the southeastern section of the city, Neukölln was founded in the 1200s by the Knights Templar. First an independent city known as Rixdorf, village life centered on Richardplatz. It became the place to party and had a negative reputation.
It was was absorbed into greater Berlin in 1920 as the eighth administrative district of the federal capital. With that came a re-branding and Rixdorf became Neukölln (or "New Cölln"). Not that this solved its reputation for hedonism.
During WWII, the area was partially destroyed but maintained many of its historic buildings.
The Berlin Wall lay along its border with neighboring Treptow, making Neukölln fairly isolated and adding to it being undesirable.
Because of this, apartment prices remained low and immigrants (usually guest workers from Turkey) made a home here. It was identified as one of Berlin’s problem neighborhood. Nevertheless, students, squatters, and artists followed, eventually elevating the area's reputation. Neukölln remains one of Berlin's most diverse neighborhoods with about 15% of its inhabitants of Turkish origin. But the newer immigrants tend to be English or Spanish-speaking and from Western countries. It is still multikulti (multicultural), but looks much different than it used to.
While the newest burger bar or bio (organic) coffee roaster are specialty cocktail bar are a destination in themself, Neukölln also has epic parks and historic allees (streets).

Here is the center of what it is call Rixdorf.
The traditional heart of Neukölln was once just a wayward village, but this is now the most grown-up section of the neighborhood.
