During the Middle Ages some royal Meier courtyards from which were at the turn of the modern era of the Frankfurt patrician estates. The names of some of these courtyards are up again today in street names:
- Kühhornshof, later Bertramshof
- Holzhausenhof or Holzhausen-Oed, because of the remoteness
Besides the surviving water castle which the patrician family Holzhausen in the 18th Century was built, and the Holzhausenstraße tangent to the former farm north, still remembers the Oeder path that leads to long (Holzhausen) Oed on this farm. The surrounding Anna Street, Justinianstraße and Hamma road refer to the names of family members.
- Stalburger yard or Stalburger desolation, east of Holzhausen Oeds
There branched off the Oeder way. The Stalburgstraße runs today to the north.
- Glauburger Hof
This farm was between Friedberg and Bornheimer Heath. In 1690 the court into the hands of Johann Jakob Guenther, the namesake of today Günthersburgpark park, which was created in place of the court. The name of Northrend was around 1850. At the time, it represented the northernmost extension of the urban development represents the area between the former central city and the "merry village" Bornheim was in the building zone plan of Frankfurt reported as a residential area and from the early days up to the turn of the nineteenth to the twentieth century, built-up, so that it became the district with the highest population density. Wide avenues in wilhelminischem style emerged, and still is red sandstone base cover the most frequent four-story row houses. With the end of the 19th Century attempts were made for the first time to divide the city into statistical districts. The Northrend was thus from the districts 12, 13, 20, 21, 22, 23 and 24 These numbers remained virtually unchanged to this day. Under Mayor Franz Adickes the Northrend and other Gründerzeit Districts expanded strongly. To set a limit of development, a second ring road was constructed, which should surround the densely built residential areas.
