  • Renaming Streets, Inverting Perspectives: Acts of Postcolonial Memory Citizenship in Berlin
    Focus on German Studies 20 41 Renaming Streets, Inverting Perspectives: Acts Of Postcolonial Memory Citizenship In Berlin Jenny Engler Humbolt University of Berlin n October 2004, the local assemblyman Christoph Ziermann proposed a motion to rename “Mohrenstraße” (Blackamoor Street) in the city center of Berlin (BVV- Mitte, “Drucksache 1507/II”) and thereby set in train a debate about how to deal Iwith the colonial past of Germany and the material and semantic marks of this past, present in public space. The proposal was discussed heatedly in the media, within the local assembly, in public meetings, in university departments, by historians and linguists, by postcolonial and anti-racist activists, by developmental non-profit organizations, by local politicians, and also by a newly founded citizens’ initiative, garnering much atten- tion. After much attention was given to “Mohrenstraße,” the issue of renaming, finally came to include the so-called African quarter in the north of Berlin, where several streets named after former colonial regions and, most notably, after colonial actors are located. The proposal to rename “Mohrenstraße” was refused by the local assembly. Nev- ertheless, the assembly passed a resolution that encourages the “critical examination of German colonialism in public streets” (BVV-Mitte, “Drucksache 1711/II”) and, ultimately, decided to set up an information board in the so-called African quarter in order to contextualize the street names (BVV-Mitte, “Drucksache 2112/III”). How- ever, the discussion of what the “critical

    DIE NEUE U5. FÜR MEHR MITTENDRIN. DIE NEUE U5 Der Lückenschluss verlängert die U5 vom Alexanderplatz zum Brandenburger Tor und führt sie dort mit der bereits fertigen U55 zusammen. Aus U5 und U55 wird eine Linie: die neue U5. Entlang der Neubaustrecke entstehen drei neue U-Bahnhöfe: Berliner Rathaus (Rotes Rathaus), Museumsinsel und Unter den Linden, der künftige Kreuzungsbahnhof der Linien U5 und U6. Durch den Lückenschluss erhalten die großen Wohngebiete im Osten Berlins nach der Fertig- stellung eine umsteigefreie Verbindung zur historischen Innenstadt, zum Regierungsviertel und zum Hauptbahnhof, welche mit der neu- en U5 ebenfalls eine durchgehende Anbindung an das komplette U-Bahnnetz erhalten. Außerdem werden zahlreiche Wahrzeichen Berlins schnell und mit einer U-Bahnlinie erreichbar: vom Fernseh- turm über das Rote Rathaus, die Marienkirche und den Neptunbrun- nen, das Nikolaiviertel, die Museumsinsel und den Berliner Dom, das Humboldtforum, das Deutsche Historische Museum und die Staatsoper, die Humboldt-Universität und die Staatsbibliothek hin zum Brandenburger Tor – und das ist nur eine kleine Auswahl.

Damit würde die neue U5 ganze Städte wie Wolfsburg oder Heidelberg befördern. • Berlins Mitte wird um bis zu 3.500 Autos täglich entlastet.

  • Le Corbusier in Berlin, 1958: the Universal and the Individual in the Unbuilt City
    DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/LC2015.2015.921 Le Corbusier in Berlin, 1958: the universal and the individual in the unbuilt city M. Oliveira Eskinazi Faculdade de Arquitetura e Urbanismo, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Urbanismo, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro Abstract: Among several urban plans designed for Berlin, we find Le Corbusier`s project for the Hauptstadt Berlin 1958 competition, which aimed at thinking the reconstruction of the city center destroyed in the II World War. Corbusier`s relation with Berlin dates back to 1910, when he arrives at the city to work at Peter Behrens` office. So, for him, the plan for Berlin was a rare opportunity to develop ideas about the city that provided one of the largest contributions to his urban design education, and also to develop ideas he formulated forty years before for Paris` center. Besides that, this project was developed almost simultaneously with CIAM`s crises and dissolution, which culminated in the 50`s with the consequent appearance of Team 10. At that moment Corbusier`s universalist approach to urbanism starts to be challenged by CIAM`s young generation, which had a critical approach towards the design methods inherited from the previous generation, associated with CIAM`s foundational moment. From the beginning of the 50`s on, this new generation balances the universalist ideals inherited from the previous generation with individualist ones they identified as necessary to face the new post war reality. Thus, the main goal of this paper is to analyse Corbusier’s design for Berlin and question whether he, at an already mature point of his career, was proposing a plan that answered only the questions that were important to CIAM and to the canonical principles of modern architecture, or if he had also addressed those that belonged to the new generation and Team 10`s agenda, both of them present in the debates of the moment, largely identified as a transitional period.

MERRITT ABSTRACT. Political decisions divided postwar Berlin and isolated West Berlin politically from its immediate environment of East Germany and spatially from West Germany. These political circumstances have had a permanent impact upon the city's locational infrastructure. The growing peripherality of West Berlin to West German life has reduced the scope of activity in the city's public and private sectors. In Berlin itself the separation of east from west required the construction of new municipal facilities in both.

  • The Spatial Pattern of Gentrification in Berlin
    Julia Siemer and Keir Matthews-Hunter The spatial pattern of gentrification in Berlin The spatial pattern of gentrification in Berlin Julia Siemer Department of Geography and Environmental Studies, University of Regina Keir Matthews-Hunter Department of Geography and Planning, University of Toronto In recent years, gentrification has become central to political debates, media reports, and everyday conversations on urban de- velopment in Berlin, Germany. More or less all inner city districts fit some rubric of gentrification discussed in the international literature. However, as a result of Berlin’s unique history as a divided city, the process has developed at times and in patterns that are markedly different from other global cities. The article briefly outlines the urban agendas and renewal efforts of East and West Berlin during the years of division. It proceeds to document the political, economic, and cultural factors underlying the development of Berlin’s place and history specific development of gentrification in the reunified city since 1990. Keywords: Gentrification, spatial pattern, Berlin, Germany Introduction temporal pattern of gentrification, this article traces the spatial development of gentrification in Berlin back to the city’s place- At first sight, Berlin appears to be a showcase for the various specific history of urban planning strategies. It begins with an forms of gentrification discussed in international literature outline of the political climates and urban renewal efforts of East (Holm 2013, 186).
