Ackersteinstrasse

Ackersteinstrasse goes from Im Sydelfädeli to Limmattalstrasse. It is named after a house from the neighborhood, known as "Roter Ackerstein", which is the oldest identifiable estate in the Höngg neighborhood: it was built in 1674.

A residential street, curving right and going downwards. The left side shows a wall and trees/shrubs, the right side has a couple of cars and buildings. There's a few more buildings in the background, by the curve of the street.
