These pictures are actually only the beginning of a larger renovation / re-organization
my "photo-archives" and I will be facing in the next months years..:]
For now I at least found some almost forgotten pictures of Potsdamer Platz slowly
growing - and finally glowing. Some of the early pictures I took with my first
digital camera, the 'Olympus Camedia'. The newer, more shiny ones were made with
our 'Nikon CoolPix', some of the close-ups were again taken by Nii,,
..enjoy..
By night the Potsdamer Platz is glwing in the dark: especially the glass facades
of the Sony-Center (sometimes also called 'Mount Fuji') and the "Train-Tower"
are illuminated rather heavily, but also the other buildings shine on..
also the not-so-ovious details such as this garage entrance are well designed
at the Sony-Center
the glass facade of the Sony-Centers mirrors its surroundings: here it's a smaller
building of the 'Philharmonie'
1999: slowly the two tower grow: Renzo Piano's 'glass peak' and Hans Kollhoff's
"Gotham-Tower" with its brick-covered facade semmed to race with eachover
for some time - but then Kollhoff's tower won.. and for now it's the highest building
at Potzdamer Platz.
one of the last pictures of the Infobox - which used to be probably one of the
most popular sights back in the times when the Potsdamer Platz wasn't ready yet..
..to be continued..
