Karl-Marx-Hof was built between 1927 and 1930 by city planner Karl Ehn, a follower of Otto Wagner.
Gardens were then built in the area, but these were removed in the middle of the 1920s to make room for the erection of the third-largest housing development in Vienna, a program undertaken by the social democrats.
It held 1,382 apartments (with a size of 30-60 m² each) and was called the Ringstraße des Proletariats, or the Ring Street of the Proletariat.
