Moabit is centrally located, still has many relatively inexpensive apartments in old buildings, and is surrounded by water all around: the Spree, the Berlin-Spandau ship canal, Westhafen canal, and the Charlottenburg junction canal.

Twenty-five bridges connect Moabit to Berlin's "mainland". Once a traditional working-class neighborhood, Moabit is now known as a particularly young and international district. The average income here is lower than in other parts of the city. Rents are also still comparatively low, which in turn attracts many creative people.

Stephankiez

The north of Moabit is largely characterized by large tenements and industrial estates. In this area, you will hear many people speak Arabic and different African languages and dialects. The south of Moabit is more middle-class. Moabit is divided into different neighborhoods, with the the star-shaped Stephankiez in the north as one of the best known ones. It is considered a very well-preserved Wilhelminian neighborhood, with 90 percent of the historic building fabric still intact. Stephankiez is located around Stephanplatz and borders Wedding to the north.

Beusselkiez, Huttenkiez, Westphalian Quarter

Other neighborhoods are Beusselkiez, known for its architectural monument, the AEG turbine factory, and the Huttenkiez in the north of Moabit. The latter is also called Hutteninsel (Hutten island) because it is occupies an islnad position amidst a large industrial area. The Westphalian quarter (Westfälisches Viertel), located in the southwest between Stromstraße, Alt-Moabit, Gotzkowskystraße and the Spree, features many town houses. In the east of Moabit is the Lehrter-Straßen-Kiez.

Moabiter Werder

The Moabiter Werder consists of many residential buildings for members of the Bundestag and for employees of the federal government in Berlin. They were built as part of a competition in 1995. The best-known building is the "Abgeordneten-Schlange" ("Queue of Deputies").

Fritz-Schloß-Park

The largest green area in Moabit is Fritz-Schloß-Park, which started as a mountain of rubble on a former parade ground. The park houses the Poststadion, formerly the second largest soccer stadium in Berlin, which is being used again as of recent. There is also the SportPark Poststadion with its various athletic facilities, including the indoor swimming pool Seydlitzstraße, a climbing hall and a spa and wellness area. Smaller green spaces in Moabit are the Kleine Tiergarten and the Ottopark, both located exactly between Turmstraße and the street Alt-Moabit.

Arminius Market Hall

The Moabit market hall, also called Arminius Market Hall, located near the subway station Turmstraße dates from the late Wilhelminian period and is considered one of the most beautiful of its kind in Berlin. Since its renovation in 2010, it has become a place to experience good cuisine and various events.
