As it stood in 1970
What Alexanderplatz looked like in its prime.
A vast, flat rectangular pedestrian plaza paved in light-grey concrete slabs and set across roughly eight hectares; the Fernsehturm's slim concrete shaft and mirrored steel sphere towers above the square, a tall glass-faced Park Inn hotel stands to the east and a blocky pale-stone / glass department store (Kaufhof/Galeria) with a curved façade occupies the centre-left edge. The plaza is punctuated by the cylindrical Weltzeituhr, blue 'U' subway entrances, tram tracks at the edges, bicycle racks and scattered young trees.
