Berlin In Your Pocket - Potsdamer Platz

http://www.inyourpocket.com/
In Your Pocket travel writer Andrew Quested at Potsdamer Platz, Berlin's new vibrating and noisy city centre. Once the modern heart of a thriving metropolis, this urban centre was heavily damaged in the war, and suffered again when remaining buildings were pulled down to make way for the Wall's death strip. After years of construction in the mid-90s, skyscrapers have added a cosmopolitan and glassy edge to the city. The literal Potsdamer Platz is an intersection, and the east side of it, known as Leipziger Platz, is slowly building up in height as well. Potsdamer Platz's most popular public space and architectural attraction is The Sony Center, with its huge atrium and tent-like roof. It's best to view at night for its impressive lighting. The neighbouring DaimlerChrysler complex holds architecture by Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers, and the Arkaden shopping mall, with rather humdrum shops, but the best gelato café in the city.
