Prater road

The Praterstraße in the direction of Nestroyplatz, on the left side of the road: # 33, Alliiertenhof

The Prater road towards Prater Stern

The ca. 1 km long Praterstraße in the 2nd District of Vienna, Leopoldstadt, connects the Old Town from Sweden bridge over the Danube Canal and from Tabor Road with the Praterstern, one of the largest hub of communications of the city, and the Vienna Prater. The street continues beyond the Praterstern in the Lassallestraße, the Reichsbrücke (bridge) over the Danube and the Wagramerstraße (22nd District), and leads to Marchfeld, to north-eastern Lower Austria and South Moravia.

The suburbs in the second District were incorporated in 1850. Named is the road officially since 1862 (previously but already on a map of 1856, for example) according to the Vienna Prater, which connects to the Praterstern. Previously it had been called, as the to the south adjoining suburb, Jägerzeile. Since 1981, operates under the Prater street in its full length the subway line U1, here, for example, approximately in the middle between Swedenplatz and Praterstern serving the station Nestroyplatz (since 1979). In addition to the Taborstraße the Prater Street is one of the main streets of the second District and the center nearest city parts.

History

The name Prater (pratum) was first found in a deed, the Emperor Frederick Barbarossa issued in 1162 in Bologna. The document notarizes a donation of river meadows in Vienna. 1537 Emperor Ferdinand I (HRR) as Archduke of Austria below the Enns and landowner in the Prater the main avenue had layed out.

The term Jägerzeile was used after 1569 for the driveway connecting a settlement of the Habsburg gamekeepers and wood workers in the Danube floodplains to the northwest of the later Praterstern with the city. Later, the Imperial Court as a landlord provided building grounds just south of the route, and since 1660 this settlement and it's surrounding wide forest and water areas like the street then were called Jägerzeile. North of the road and from the Czerningasse into town bordered the suburb of Leopoldstadt. The coat of arms of the hunter line (Jägerzeile) now forms part of the Leopoldstadt district coat of arms.

1683 devastated the Ottomans at the Second Siege of Vienna the Leopoldstadt. 1734 the wooden chapel in the Jägerzeile during a storm was destroyed, the miraculous image remained intact. Emperor Charles VI. as landlord granted the permission now to build a stone chapel, which was consecrated to saint Nepomuk in 1736. When Joseph II in 1766 the until then for his family reserved Prater made ​accessible to the public and permitted on the premises catering and entertainment companies, the frequency in the Hunter line increased very considerably. The hitherto at night still closed terrain in 1775 became accessible day and night. 1781 the Leopoldstadt theater at the Jägerzeile was opened (see buildings, No. 31).

1809 the tropps of Napoleon I plundered Jägerzeile. After the victory over the Emperor of the French within the scope of the Coalition wars, on 25th September 1814 Tsar Alexander I of Russia, King Frederick William III. of Prussia and Emperor Francis I, who at the Tabor line (see Tabor Road No. 80) them with a large entourage for the Congress of Vienna had welcomed, marched past the hunter line into the city (see buildings, No. 33). Three weeks later, the Emperor gave to the opening of the congress a great festival in the Prater, over the Hunter line followed the access of his guests.

1824 had Ferdinand Raimunds' magic buffoonery "The barometer maker on the magic island" in the Leopoldstadt Theater premiere. 1838, the railway traffic on the Emperor Ferdinand Northern Railway from Nordbahn at Praterstern was taken on. The first station of Vienna has evolved over the decades to the most frequented of the monarchy and brought a lot of traffic to Prater street.

As the old Nepomuk Church (see buildings, number 41) has proven to be too small for the rapidly growing suburb, in 1846 on another site the new Johann Nepomuk Church (see buildings at No. 45) was opened. Its high, pointed tower with a large clock marks the silhouette of the front of houses since then significantly. On 28th October 1848 it came in Jägerzeile as well as in the Prater to heavy fights between the defenders of the 1848 revolution and the by Prince Alfred I. zu Windisch-Graetz and Count Joseph Jelacic of Bužim commanded reactionary imperial troops, storming the barricades at the Prater Stern and at Nepomuk Church. This "Viennese October insurrection" led to many deaths among the civilian population and high property damage.

In 1850, after Franz Joseph I had authorized a Provisional Municipal Code, numerous suburbs were incorporated to Vienna, including Leopoldstadt and Jägerzeile, forming the core of the new 2nd District, and it was likewise called Leopoldstadt. The assigned district number corresponded to the importance of the new Leopoldstadt in the entire area of Vienna. 1862, the street name Jägerzeile was officially changed into Prater Street and the new name was already previously in use, eg on a map anno 1856.

1866/1867 the later "Waltz King" Johann Strauss at the Prater street wrote the Danube waltz (see buildings, No. 54). 1868, the horse-drawn tramway through the Praterstraße was opened, which was operated here until 1901; coming from the Franz Joseph Quai and from the (1864 opened) Aspern Bridge, led the stretch of way over the Danube Canal through the short Aspernbrückengasse to the Prater street and on this to the Prater Stern and along to the bathing ships at the Danube. The tram went here for decades in side-lying position, ie, near the north-facing house front, after the reconstruction of the Praterstern in the 1950s in the middle of the street. In 1873 in the Prater took place the Vienna universal exhibition, which was followed by numerous fairs and exhibitions to date, the Prater street was the most important feeder. 1876, the Crown Prince Rudolf Bridge was opened, and the Prater street was now part of a remote connection direction Moravia and Galicia.

1886 as visual termination of the Prater street the striking Tegetthoff monument was unveiled (architecture: Karl von Hasenauer, plastic: Carl Kundmann). It commemorates the victorious Austrian Admiral and formed until the early 1950s the center of the Prater star. The trams went around the monument.

Around the turn of the century, two projects were submitted, which stipulated to continue the Prater street in a straight line across the Danube Canal and across through the Old Town in the first distric to St. Stephen's: 1895 by Alfred Riehl, 1912/1913 by Adolf Loos with Paul Engelmann. With Loos this project would have been part of an overall renovation of the old town, including ring road zone. Loos claimed the idea ​​the visual axis from the Prater Stern to the cathedral to extend to a transport axis stemmed from Empress Maria Theresa; evidence were not found.

On 22nd July 1928 moved a huge festive procession of the 10th German Choral Association Festival from City Hall and Ring through the Prater street into the Prater. It is claimed that around 150,000 people have been involved. On 1st May 1929 the Carl Theater (see buildings, No. 31) closed definitely (in the bomb war 1944 severely damaged, it was demolished in 1951). From 19th to 26th July 1931 the II International Workers' Olympiads in the recently completed Praterstadion led to heavy traffic volumes in the Prater street.

In May 1938 the Vienna Stadtbauamt (public construction authority) under Nazi leadership presented considerations, to close the Ring Road across the Leopoldstadt to a complete ring. The Aspernbrückengasse would have become part of this ring extension, the part most close to downtown of the Prater street, from the Sweden bridge to Aspernbrückengasse, disappeared. The idea behind the project was to demolish the entire part of town, heavily populated by Jewish Viennese and with modified road network to rebuilt. The in 1939 began Second World War shifted such considerations to the time after the "final victory".

1970 the Prater bridge over the Danube and the Prater high road was completed. This new connection, running parallel to the road Praterstraße/Lassallestraße, later part of the "Südosttangente" called city highway, discharges the Prater street partly from the passage traffic between the districts left of the Danube and right of the Danube Canal.

The U -Bahn line U1, which coming from the city center in 1979 the Nestroyplatz at the Prater street had reached, in 1981 was extended to the Praterstern. For this reason, more than 110 years of rail transport on the Praterstreet came to an end. After completion of the subway construction under the road it was largely run four-laned, for the most part equipped with a raised center strip and turned into an alley. The road section between Tabor Road and Aspernbrückengasse was now only navigable as one-way in the resident traffic, the through traffic entirely was routed over Aspernbrückengasse to the ring.

Once a week, I mentor Natalina to help her develop her art maker and multimedia skills. This week, we practiced Qigong, read a french poem, completed her Pataphysical Journey video and experimented with remotes to control our 'poetic robots.’ Phyllis showed her a few ways to use storytelling in multimedia.

 

This art maker course is coming along very well: Natalina is getting more comfortable with technology, and starting to integrate it into her art -- which is the whole point of these classes. Based on what we’re learning together, I hope to adapt some of these ideas for future courses with other students in coming months.

 

For our wonderbot project, we are now brainstorming ideas for our characters and their adventures, developing a story line around behaviors we can simulate (e.g.: respond to each other’s calls, approach or avoid one another). Next, we’d like to add dialog, music, sound effects, props and backdrop — and capture the best scenes on video. We think focusing on the art for a while is the right direction for now, with the tech supporting the magical experience we seek to create.
