Eberts Villaby (literally "Ebert's Villa Town") is an enclave of late 19th-century detached houses situated just off Amagerbrogade in the otherwise more dense Sundby district on Amager in Copenhagen, Denmark. ==History== The development takes its name after Herman Ebert who acquired a farm at the site in 1894. He constructed a fountain at the centre of the development, a pumping station at its highest point and began the construction of houses which he sold to members of the Copenhagen middle class as they were completed. The Association of House Owners in Sundbyvester ('' Foreningen af Villaejere i Villabyen I Sundbyvester'')was founded on 1 September 1896. The original plans for the area also included a community house with a ''conditorie'' but it was given up in 1897 due to an estimated cost of DKK 30,000. The last houses were completed in 1898 and water and gas was installed in 1899. In 1907, Herman Ebert ceded ownership of the fountain and street network to the Association of House Owners and electric ity was installed in all houses. In 1925, the Association of House Owners changed its name to Eberts Villaby. One of the houses was expropriated and subsequently demolished in connection with an expansion of Englandsvej from 10 to 22 metres. Another four houses were demolished in 1856 as a consequence of a building project on Amagerbrogade. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eberts Villaby」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
