説明 | fotostrasse.com/verkehrskanzel-berlin-traffic-control/-----I have been to West Berlin a few hundred times but, for me, that part of the city is still a mystery. Sometimes you look into a different direction and something completely new pops up before your eyes. This is what happened to me one day when I left Kurfürstendamm U-Bahn and looked up at the subway exit at Joachimstaler Strasse. There was a prismatic building looking over the street and I had no idea what is was. After some online research, a name came to me: Verkehrskanzel.Verkehrskanzel is the last surviving traffic pulpit in Berlin. Located at Joachimsthalerplatz, this box-like building made of glass was built over 4.5 meters in height. It stands over a pavilion where there’s a sales kiosk, a public toilet and one of the entries to Kurfürstendamm U-Bahn. The construction started all the way back in 1955 but the building was, pretty much, obsolete in less than ten years. All this happened due to automation. |
