Øresundsvej
Øresundsvej is a street in the East Amager district of Copenhagen, Denmark. It runs from Amagerbrogade in the west to Amager Strandvej in the east. History Øresundsvej is the old main street of the village of Sundbyøster. All the farms of the village lined the street in a row, with cultivated land on one side and pastures on the other. The street began to change in 1755 when a royal charter allowed craftsmen and sailors to settle in Sundby Øster and Sundbyvester. The surrounding farmland was sold off in lats in the late 19th century. The first part of the street was gradually built over with taller buildings after the turn of the century. Several large industrial plants opened at the far end of the street in the 1910s and 1920s. One of them, was Nielsen & Winther, a machine factory and aeroplane manufacturer previously based on Blegdamsvej. The company inaugurated a large factory at Øresundsvej 147 in 1917. The complex was designed by Frederik Wagner. Just a few years later ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

East Amager
East or Orient is one of the four cardinal directions or points of the compass. It is the opposite direction from west and is the direction from which the Sunrise, Sun rises on the Earth. Etymology As in other languages, the word is formed from the fact that east is the direction where the Sun rises: ''east'' comes from Middle English ''est'', from Old English ''ēast'', which itself comes from the Proto-Germanic language, Proto-Germanic *''aus-to-'' or *''austra-'' "east, toward the sunrise", from Proto-Indo-European language, Proto-Indo-European *aus- "to shine," or "dawn", cognate with Old High German ''*ōstar'' "to the east", Latin ''aurora'' 'dawn', and Greek language, Greek ''ēōs'' 'dawn, east'. Examples of the same formation in other languages include Latin Orient, oriens 'east, sunrise' from orior 'to rise, to originate', Greek language, Greek ανατολή Anatolia, anatolé 'east' from ἀνατέλλω 'to rise' and Hebrew מִזְרָח mizraḥ 'east' from זָ ...

Amagerbrogade
Amagerbrogade is the main shopping street and thoroughfare of the part of Copenhagen, Denmark that is located on the island of Amager . It begins at the end of the causeway which connects Amager to Christianshavn and the city centre on the other side of the harbour, and runs south until it reaches the municipal border with Tårnby where it continues as Amager Landevej. The street marks the border between Amager Vest and Amager Øst, two of the ten official districts of Copenhagen. Amagerbrogade arose when the country road leading in and out of Copenhagen's Amager Gate was urbanized towards the end of the 18th century after the city's old fortifications had been decommissioned and the no-built zone outside them released. It is one of four such ''-bro streets''. History Om the 18th century the road network outside Amager Gate was generally limited and in a poor state. From 1780 to 1790 the main road to Store Magleby and Dragør was upgraded but only a short stretch was cobbled. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

A machine factory is a company, that produces machines. These companies traditionally belong to the heavy industry sector in comparison to a more consumer oriented and less capital intensive light industry. Today many companies make more sophisticated smaller machines, and they belong to the light industry. The economic sector of machine factories is called the machine industry. History The machinery factories came into existence in the course of the Industrial Revolution. Late 18th century most production machines, were still made of wood and manufactured in local workshops. The first industrial factories, such as cotton mills and cotton weavers, started their own workshops, where clockmakers, instrument makers, joiners and cabinet makers were employed to build and maintain the production machines.Lintsen (1993, p. 38). In the first half of the 19th century gradually the wooden machinery got replaced by metal machine. The machine building gradually broke loose from the textil ...
