Friedrichstraße station


One of the lovely S-bahn stations in Berlin. In the old days, there were stops for both east and west Berlin in this station and it was a complicated maze. Today it's still a major hub for the U-bahn, S-bahn and suburban trains and there's a big shopping center inside too. My favorite part is the beautiful interior of the S-bahn waiting areas. How can you not be impressed with all that brick work and those windows?

  3. This is super... bricks, windows. I was in this station before the wall came down when I had not yet discovered my love of photography. Now I can enjoy it again through your eyes.

  4. I think it says something important about a city that puts money and effort into making something like this almost a work of art instead of just some old ugly wall.
