The Friedrichstraße (Frederick Street) is a major shopping street in (east) central Berlin. It runs from the northern part of old Mitte (north of which it is called Chausseestraße) to the Hallesches Tor in the district of Kreuzberg. Due to its north-southerly direction, it forms important junctions with the east-western axes, most notably with Leipziger Straße and Unter den Linden. The U6 subway runs underneath.Many of the finest fashion brands have an outlet on Friedrichstraße. It has as well been a playground of modern architecture during the general refurbishment period in the 1990s.
Despite being of such critical economic importance, Friedrichstraße is remarkably narrow, leading to clogging of traffic on a regular basis.
