Das Berlin Stadt Modell pt 3

"

Excerpt from the Senatsverwaltung für Stadtentwicklung leaflet:

"A permanent exhibition of the Senate Department for Urban development presents four models and a host of plans on the development of Berlin's inner city district.
- The 1:1000 model depicts large projects in the inner-city urban context.
- The 1:500 model shows the impact of single buildings on their direct neighbourhood.
- The virtual 3D model simulates the planned Berlin on all scales.

...The 1:500 model focuses on Berlin's historical centre. It goes so far as to show details of facades that were designed over the past ten years or finished buildings, as well as the latest planning., for instance the Inner-City Plan. One centimetre in the model corresponds to five metres in reality."
