Wienzeile

The Wienzeile ('Vienna Row') is a street in Vienna, which originated in the course of the regulation of the Vienna River between 1899 and 1905 along the river's banks.
It is divided into the Rechte Wienzeile (Right Vienna Row) and the Linke Wienzeile (Left Vienna Row):
Before the regulation of the Vienna River, the Rechte Wienzeile was called "Wienstraße" in the fourth district, "Flussgasse" in the fifth district, "An der Wien", and "Wienstraße". The Linke Wienzeile had various names in the sixth district, first "Am Wienufer" as well as "Ufergasse", later "Magdalenenstraße" and "Wienstraße".
The U-Bahn line U4 runs along the entirety of the Wienzeile's length on the stretch of the former Wiener Stadtbahn.
The Wienzeile has a strong architectural presence in the form of Otto Wagner's Jugendstil building in the vicinity of the Naschmarkt.
In the outer districts of Hietzing and Penzing, the extended Wienzeile is called Hietzinger Kai as well as Hadikgasse.
