This is close to the underground station Bayerische Platz on the line U7. The NH City West Hotel and several of the other listed hotels are close to the underground station Berliner Strasse, which is also on the line U7. The arcana hotel / hostel is between the stations Bayerische Platz and Eisenacher Strasse, both on line U7. Details are shown on the map. Tegel Airport arrivals Tegel is Berlin’s main airport, where most flights arrive. It is close to the centre of West Berlin. To get into town you need to leave the airport by bus. The bus stop is in front of Terminal A (for those arriving at Terminal A, it is built as a circle with the exit between gates 1 and 15). Tickets are available (1) at a window on the right-hand side of the main exit from Terminal A, (2) at a machine by the bus, or (3) from the driver. If you buy from the machine you need a ticket for zones A+B. A single ticket is valid for one journey of 2 hours, and costs €2.80. A day ticket (not available on the bus) costs €7.00. You have to stamp the ticket before getting on the bus, or on entering the bus for it to be valid. You should get on bus 109, or the express version X9 You then have a number of alternatives: (a) You could get off the bus at the first underground station (Jakob-Kaiser Platz).

While the city has grown in terms of investment and social capital, it has not attained the preeminent status on the global stage that was expected. One important reason for this is that Berlin remains no more than a secondary hub in the global airline industry. In this article, we measure the city’s importance in airline networks at four points from 1989 to 2006. We then explain the city’s stature in those networks today as a product of both larger forces in the airline industry and circumstances more specific to Berlin. The former include liberalization and the development of airline alliances. In Berlin, meanwhile, the fractured airport system, which the city inherited from the Cold War, has been an obstacle to Berlin’s aspirations for centrality in the airline industry.

Bebauungsplan lehnen wir in der vorliegenden Form ab . Baumschutz: Grundlegend begrüßen wir die geplante Nachverdichtung und im Besonderen die Aufstockung beste- hender Gebäude als eine Maßnahme die Ansprüche an zusätzlichem Wohnraum mit dem Erhalt von Grün- und Freiflächen sowie einem sparsamen Umgang mit Boden in Einklang zu bringen. Allerdings würden durch die geplanten Baumaßnahmen, zumindest in der bisherigen Konzeption, u.U. bis zu 500 Bäume gefällt werden. Es dürfte im Grunde genommen unmöglich sein, diese Anzahl auch nur ansatzweise durch Neupflanzungen vor Ort auszugleichen. Selbst bei konservativen Schätzungen (2 t/a) entspricht der Wegfall dieser Zahl an Bestandsbäumen einer verminderten CO 2 Bindung von ca. 1000 Tonnen pro Jahr. Hinzu kommt der Ausfall der Luftfilterungsfunktion, sowie eine signifikante Veränderung des Lokalklimas durch die entfallende Kühlung durch Verdunstung.

  • The Story of Berlin's Airports in the Story of the City Itself
    AIRPORT CITY LIMITS: A CRITICAL ASSESSMENT OF THE REDEVELOPMENT OF BERLIN’S FLUGHAFEN SCHÖNEFELD by RAWLEY JOHN VAUGHAN A Masters Project submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Regional Planning in the Department of City and Regional Planning. Berlin 2006 ______________________________ Harvey Goldstein Advisor to Melissa There are some who say that communism is the wave of the future. Let them come to Berlin. John F. Kennedy, 26 June 1963 2 Abstract A large airport and its “airport city” can be a regional economic driver. Berlin—capital of a rich nation yet home to a stagnant economy—is building a new airport. The government is involved on many different levels, as it hopes this new airport, Berlin Brandenburg International, can spur economic development. The best and chosen site for this new airport is actually an old one, Schönefeld, yet old airports tend to be near settlements dense enough to cause substantial pushback from some of the neighboring population. The inevitable anti-airport protest recently has produced a legal settlement that allows for the new airport’s construction, but it curtails certain aspects that would make it more of an economic driver. Also, the various levels of government have competing motives for what sort of “airport city” development occurs nearby.
