Still glad that terrible plan for Tempelhof got buried, but right now other parties are trying to resurrect the corpse.
Don't get me wrong, we might have to build on there one day, and this could probably be done in a nice way, but surrounding the whole thing with houses is not a plan.As for Tegel, its quite different to Thof as its almost outside of city limits?
Looks like housing on that triangle to the right, and university/office around and inside the terminal. Hope the city proves that they can build a good neighbourhood, not many convincing examples around. @Rodolfo that the part you worked on?Also as usual not easy to find useful information about whats going on. Some more or less nice pictures from the development agency. And all the complicated stuff from the city.

What do you mean? It's only a short distance further from the centre than Tempelhof (I may be applying a London perception here). It's certainly well within the limits of Berlin, and I don't see why it would be treated differently.
I dislike large-scale masterplanning intensely, and this is what's happening here, e.g. with the plans for the "Schuhmacher-Quartier" (which, annoyingly, they don't hyphenate except in the URL).

I've looked at a lot of these sorts of masterplans and seen some of the results, and I don't think they ever yield good results.

...let's agree to disagree..;)
You were also against the (kickass!) library at the end of the runway?Worked on the master plan, again, one of many failed competition entries.
The tegel-airport plan was already done. The decision to keep the building is from an architectural heritage standpoint correct, although the startup hipness is starting to bore me by now.

Worked on one of the many failed competition entries for the development of tegel. As it's government land and as was said upthread demand is very large they want to build as much affordable housing there as possible after the debacle of wanting to build along the edges of the tempelhofer feld that got rejected by a referendum.
You can't have your cake AND eat it as seems to be the delusion of your fellow islander brexshitters. Theres ample green space in Berlin and around for you cyclists that actually have time to cycle..;)
