Description

Today I had a bit of an urban adventure holiday with my friend Martin. We visited Teufelsberg. Teufelsberg is a hilltop place in Berlin where the USA listened to the communications of the Eastern block as best they could. They had these high tech radar towers that were in the weather protected safety of the domes.
For a time there was talk of turning them into luxury condos, but that didn’t pan out.
