context_page_description: Vester, Nørre and Øster Farimagsgade is a succession of streets which together connect the south-western Vesterbro to the northern Østerbro along the periphery of the city centre in Copenhagen, Denmark. A continuation of Reventlowsgade, Vester Farimagsgade extends from Vesterbrogade at Vesterport Station and, initially, runs along the sunken railway tracks on the left before soon reaching H. C. Andersens Boulevard. It then turns into Nørre Farimagsgade and continues behind Ørsted Park to Gothersgade where it becomes Øster Farimagsgade and proceeds along another greenspace, the Copenhagen Botanical Garden, passes Sølvtorvet and the neighbourhood of terraced houses known as Kartoffelrækkerne before terminating at Lille Triangel where Østerbrogade begins.
context_section_description: Completed in 1869, Copenhagen Municipal Hospital was one of the first buildings to be completed outside Copenhagen's former fortifications. It is now part of University of Copenhagen's City Campus.
  St Andrew's Church, on the corner with Gothersgade, was completed in 1901 to a design by Martin Borch.
  The last section of the street passes the terraced housing development Kartoffelrækkerne which (The Potato Rows) was built by the Worker's Building Society between 1873 and 1889.  Øster Farimagsgade School was designed by Hans Jørgen Holm and opened in 1885. St. Andrew's Church was built at the corner of Gothersgade and Øster Farimagsgade to serve the inhabitants of the new neighbourhood. Its architect was Martin Borch.
