#BerlinHistory: Spotted this vintage DDR inspection cover in Berlin's historic Nikolaiviertel! 🇩🇪

Urban archeology meets Cold War history - check out the "Made in East Germany" stamp on this original manhole cover. These little details tell the story of a divided city. Love finding these hidden gems in Berlin's cityscape! 🌆

Close-up photo of a manhole cover showing its textured surface with concentric circles of raised square studs for traction. The center features a circular embossed design with text that reads "Made in GDR". The cover is made of metal with a brownish-gray coloring and shows some dirt and debris on its surface.

#urbaninfrastructure is built in view of #car drivers which are minority and priority
who says #government is unfair to minorities, its just maximising the resource utilisation for ahem greater good

__ joke

> #Marx believes a totalitarian state is a necessity in the beginning stages until a classless society is achieved; he is indifferent to limitations on the power of the government because he knows society will not willingly change their ways for the greater good (Marx and Engels, 1969). Marx recognizes the desire for society to change and his structure for the future is clearly outlined in his works. A socialist system will teach people to be selfless and lead to destruction of class distinctions. The main goal is to reduce the unequal distribution of wealth achieved through exploitation of the workers by the bourgeois class.

Going through thousands of old #photographs, trying to see what catches my eye and is worth sharing. This old iron fire escape fascinates (and terrifies).

This is typical of downtown Troy, New York.

Detail of an iron fire escape against a brick wall rendered in black and white. The fire escape is made of links of iron bar, shaped roughly in a rectangle. The bottom of each link anchors into the brick of the building, bends away from the building and then runs parallel to it upward, and at the top of the link bends out a bit and wraps around the bottom of the next link.An iron fire escape against a brick wall rendered in black and white.

In this view nearly two stories of the fire escape can be seen, with old wooden mullioned windows on either side, heavy stone lintels, and decorative venting above one of the lintels.

I live in next-door Aurora, #Illinois. Mayor Wehrli is naive to believe that #TheBears were ever serious about going to #Naperville instead of #ArlingtonHeights. The team's talks with him have always been an obvious negotiation tactic for a better offer from Arlington Heights.

Naperville is a lovely city, with lots of things to be proud of. But it doesn't offer the existing open lands *combined* with existing #traffic and other #UrbanInfrastructure that Arlington has to offer. Arlington has an existing large sports facility, which is abandoned and waiting for the team to move in, with roads and restaurants already right there. Naperville has none of that.

#TheBears have long made it known they hope to move to that racetrack and take over that space. They just want huge tax breaks and offers of city funding to rebuild, which Arlington has so far been unwilling to give them.

Exiting the Clyde Tunnel in Glasgow. Opened in 1963, this tunnel increased connectivity between the north and south banks of the Clyde, but at the cost of slicing local communities (and, by the looks of it, even some tenement buildings!) in half.

A belated #introduction:

I joined the fediverse in 2017, stayed a while & then took a break. Dipping my toes in again.

My day job is managing commercial property for a national healthcare provider(🥱), but I’d rather be messing around in a terminal, walking the dog or literally anything else.

#Berlin’s car ban campaign: ‘It’s about how we want to live, breathe and play’ | #Germany | The Guardian

I wonder if this could be made to work and whether it could be translated to other major cities?
