II. A Walk Along the Once-Divided City Lines


Remnant of the Berlin Wall. It has been left here for posterity.


Renovation of the Reichstag (the Parliament).


Potsdam Platz (Square). This area is a huge construction zone extending for miles. 
These 3 buildings you saw earlier from the balloon.


Construction area. There are many rivers running through Berlin that must be dealt with.


More construction along the dividing line.


This is a good shot showing you the width of the previous no-man's land.


This red building on stilts is a temporary museum dedicated to explaining the Potsdam construction scheme.


Another good shot showing you the vast amount of no-man's land still undeveloped.
