History

The street takes its name after the country house Mariendal which was located close to the beginning of the street. The estate was acquired by the businessman Niels Josephsen in 1889. He lived in the main building but created a master plan for a new neighbourhood and sold the land off in lots. He paid for the construction of Mariendal Church out of his own pocket and gave a number of lots away for charitable housing projects or sold them at very favourable conditions.[1]

gollark: Basically.
gollark: It waits for the right timer event, and will just wait infinitely if it's already happened.
gollark: Because otherwise sleep will wait forever.
gollark: I'm working on trying to have my process manager support suspending. It *kind of* works, but any "timer" events are eaten up and not fed to the process while it's suspended, so "sleep" just waits forever. How should I solve this? An event queue (could get gigantic fast, so probably not)? Special-casing for "unique" events like timers?
