About "Terrain Vague" in Friedrichshain, Berlin

Berlin’s reputation as one of the most creative cities in the world has
resulted in a recent boom of 'creatives' moving into the city from all
over the world. This in turn is triggering the emergence of new
developmentsin the city, much as German reunification triggered a
development boom in the '90s. These new developments are making
significant changes to their urban contexts and are impacting massively on the demographic character of each district.

In Friedrichshain the new so called ‘Mediaspree’ district is currently
under construction, and includes the refurbishment of old warehouses as well as the construction of new buildings. Across Warschauer Straße towards the city centre, the new O2 World signals the start of development on a huge site between railway tracks and the East Side Gallery. Behind those tracks lies another, as yet
undeveloped, area which was part of the former Wriezener train station.
