For several years the HFB offices occupied the top floor of the B&V main headquarters in Steinwerder and the aircraft were manufactured at the Steinwerder works. When shipbuilding picked up again in the late 1930s the aircraft work was moved elsewhere. At around the same time, the aircraft business was reorganised as a subsidiary of Blohm & Voss.

Founded in 1877 by
Hermann Blohm and Ernst Voss, Blohm & Voss (B&V) quickly rose to become Hamburg's biggest shipyard. Specialising in steel-hulled ships, these were originally all sailing vessels and only later did the engine business develop. The company built, maintained and repaired ships

Until 1946, the name was written as Steinwärder. (See also German wikipedia). It seems to have lent this name to a ship built in 1848 in Altona (on the opposite side of the harbour). This ship was notable for 5 migration voyages from
Hamburg to Port Adelaide between 1849 and 1863, after which it was

In the north of the district, on the site of the former Stülcken shipyard, the Stage
Theater im Hafen (Stage Theatre in the Harbour) was built in 1994. Then in 2013 a second music theatre, the Stage Theater an der Elbe (Stage Theatre on the Elbe) was built next to it.

Together with the neighbouring district of
Kleiner Grasbrook, Steinwerder forms the eastern part of the port of Hamburg. The district comprises the port and associated industrial and commercial areas, including shipyards. There is little or no residential housing.
442:
Steinwerder's economy is dominated by its port and associated maritime industries. Hamburg, including
Steinwerder, has taken the relatively unusual step of regenerating and expanding its maritime operations rather than redeveloping the waterfront for other uses.
479:
In 1902 a brick house with a round tower was built for the
Hamburg harbour pilots. When the pilots moved elsewhere, in 1925 Blohm & Voss took it over. It is nowadays surrounded by dockyards and is only visible from the river Elbe.

in World War II. After the Second World War, the
British continued to demolish the shipyards of Steinwerder. Many of the large shipyards, including Stülcken and Schlieker, have disappeared and B&V is smaller than it used to be.
570:
B&V's fortunes revived in 1952 when the City of
Hamburg guaranteed credit to the B&V subsidiary Steinwerder Industrie AG, formed in 1950, to restart ship repairs and by 1953 some 900 workers were back in employment.

After the Great Fire of 1842 so much rubble was dumped on the island that it was raised significantly above river level. This led to the change of name to "Stone island".

Steinwerder was once called
Nordersand (North Sands) and was an island until the dike-building of the Middle Ages brought it into use as farmland.

In the mid-19th century the first shipyards appeared in the district. A decisive turning point came in 1877 with the founding of the shipyard
