Berlin's most famous symbol is perhaps not the Brandenburg Gate or the TV Tower, or even the Ampelmännchen, but rather a crane. Indeed, since the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, Berlin has become a huge construction site. Once the Wall was removed, there was a ribbon of land running through the middle of the city that offered amazing opportunities for new buildings. And there were still things to be rebuilt from World War II. So construction started and has seemingly never ended, as buildings continue to spring up in all neighborhoods all around Berlin.
