Building up on the historic research previously conducted on this period, this project aims to show the infrastructral development in Berlin during the Cold War period as both obeying and creating the division of the city and as another expression of political ideology. Following the famous 1948 Berlin Blockade, the urban infrastructure, influenced by the city’s division, has created a segregated urban infrastructure in land, air, water and energy, thus setting up the problematic conditions for Berlin future development after unification.
