Weingartenstraße

Photo: Weingartenstraße

The face of Dietmar Bär, a Dortmund local and an actor popular nationwide, is showing on this Weingartenstraße billboard. Formerly situated in closest possible proximity to Hoesch Steel's BOS shop (Oxygenstahlwerk), Weingartenstraße used to be the dirtiest street in town. The pipeline in the background is part of the city's gas transportation network, connecting the various Hoesch Steel sites, air fractionation plants, and coking plants across town. Once much larger, the part shown still is transporting nitrogen. Dortmund, Germany.
