It from Bit? [Otra] Lección Del Nikolaiviertel “It from Bit?” [One More] Lesson from the Nikolaiviertel

IT FROM BIT? [OTRA] LECCIÓN DEL NIKOLAIVIERTEL “IT FROM BIT?” [ONE MORE] LESSON FROM THE NIKOLAIVIERTEL Javier RUIZ SÁNCHEZ* RESUMEN La actividad urbanística en Berlín oriental antes de la caída del muro es a menudo despachada como exenta de interés. Incluso una actuación tan singular como la reconstrucción del Nikolaiviertel es a menudo ignorada, o banalizada, probablemente debido a su lenguaje neohistoricista tanto como a su conversión como foco turístico en los últimos años. Ello contrasta con la atención prestada a otras actuaciones llevadas a cabo tras la reunificación. El presente artículo reivindica esta actuación, por lo que tiene de indagación sobre los mecanismos de construcción de complejidad urbana y entendimiento de la ciudad como objeto histórico en evolución. Quizá banal en una aproximación como proyecto, no lo es en absoluto como proceso. Palabras clave: Berlín, Regeneración urbana, Centros históricos, Complejidad urbana. ABSTRACT Urban Planning in East Berlin before 1989 is often referred as lack of interest. Even a singular project as the rebuilding of the Nikolaiviertel is often ignored, if not trivially considered, probably due to its neohistorical architectural language as much as its becoming an outstanding tourist centre in the recent years. This is more significant if we look at the attention paid to other projects after the reunification. This text tries to vindicate some lessons in this project, as we see it as an enquiry on urban methods for creating urban complexity and understanding the city as an historical object in evolution. If possibly trivial as a project, it is not at all as a process. Keywords: Berlin, Urban Regeneration, Historical Centres, Urban Complexity.

Since the fall of the Wall, the German capital’s evolution has been remarkable. Industrial spaces now host an abundance of striking private art galleries, and the city’s landscapes have been redefined by cutting-edge architecture and thought-provoking monuments. I invite you to join me in May 2022 for a five-day, behind-the-scenes immersion into the best Berlin has to offer, from its historic museum collections and lavish Prussian palaces to its elegant opera houses and electrifying contemporary art scene. We will begin with an exploration of the city’s Cold War past, and lunch atop the famous Reichstag. On Museum Island, we
