The street runs from Vesterbrogade at Sorte Hest in the north to Vigerslev Allé in the south.
The Vigerslev Bridge carries the southern part of the street across the West Line and the Gøje Tåstrup radial of the S-train network.
[4] The west side of the street was around the turn of the century increasingly dominated by the ever-expanding Carlsberg Brewery, culminating with the construction of a new head office in 1927.
The building at the corner of Lyrskovgade og Vesterfælledvej is from 1943 to 1944 and was designed by Poul Holsøe and Curt Bie.
In front of the former Carlsberg Head Office stands an octagonal fountain featuring eight bronze reliefs by Max Andersen depicting scenes from the brewery, The fountain was a gift from the brewery's employees in connection with its 100-year anniversary in 1947,[9] The fountain is flanked by two tall flag poles whose bases feature two group sculptures of three young female dancers.
The competition was won by Rudolph Tegner but Jacobsen was also fond of Bonnesen's entry and subsequently commissioned him to incorporate it in the design of two monumental flag poles for the space in front of the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek.
