Postcards from Berlin #11

Friedrichshain

Friedrichshain is the new Prinzlauerberg, which was the new Mitte. In the east everything is changing even the Plattenbau. Literally meaning ‘plate buildings’ these prefabricated soviet monsters are becoming sort after. The beautiful lumps of Stalinist concrete that line Karl Marx Allee still house the original tenants. With a special key, though, the lift now goes one up more floor to the glass penthouses that have landed on top.
