The Gutter Salutes: Brutality in Berlin 
Wednesday, April 5, 2006

While of course we've never been to Berlin, we don't for a moment think that should stop us from loving the place. Especially since some of our most favorite people ever dig it so much. So imagine our joy at discovering restmodern, a catalog of some of the dingiest, nastiest, most béton brutal, and, it follows, most wonderful buildings to be found in that broken Paris on the Spree. Hie thee to the flickr site, too. Gray skies, graffiti, and concrete? Count us in.

Not only do we love "beton" (concrete) in Berlin, you can even own it for not that much.
Post-war east German architecture is not very wanted in Germany, even though the 'plattenbauten' are interesting investment opportunities.
