The planning of Berlin's city and historic centre
Since the fall of the Wall, there has been heavy international investment in building in East Berlin. On the whole, efforts have remained marginal. Only the western part of East Berlin with its baroque grid has been developed. The central and eastern parts remain as they were. The planning for City East follows four main criteria: to redefine the historic core by structural means without resort to architectural pastiche; to redesign the major roads which occupy much of the historic centre; to restructure the modernism of the GDR capital without demolishing the (mainly prefabricated) buildings; to form an idea of the third town which would be developed by merging existing features with our new plan.
