...neoclassical museums. Behind that was Mitte and the residential district of Prenzlauer Berg. When the Wall went up, the East went down; fine apartment buildings, many of them damaged in the war, decayed further. Some areas were entirely razed to make way for the Wall and the death strips either side of it. West Berliners moved out into what had been leafy suburbs and the center of commercial life moved west. Now the city's focal point has shifted back east again, but it's an evolving process. There are still large areas of the eastern part of town that...
...Mitte, almost 30% of the population comes from abroad; before the Wall came down, the only foreigners were a smattering of East bloc diplomats. The new arrivals are literally rejuvenating Berlin's population: unlike the Germans themselves, whose birthrate is among the lowest in Europe, the foreigners are either bringing their children with them, or having them there.

...intimate black vacuum of the Loeb Experimental Theater, an all-white catwalk begins at a delicate white backdrop, subtly slanting downward across the space to nearly cut the room diagonally. The audience sits along either side in small bleacher clusters, the noticeably comfortable space between their seats an appreciated—and probably intentional—detail. After all, it could not have been lost on director Matthew C. Stone ’11 that British playwright Martin Crimp’s “Attempts on Her Life” is not a play that makes anyone feel like...
