...Bremen's designers gave her below the water line somewhat the shape of a falling raindrop; but above the water line her bow ceases to be bulbous, is keen as a bayonet edge. Luxury features of the Bremen include a street of arcaded shops; an all-night night club called The Astoria; and an optional Ritz Restaurant, where first class passengers may pay extra for a la carte food.
