Berlin Wall

An interesting piece of history definitely worth checking out if you’re visiting the World Trade Center.

Loved seeing this whimsical piece of history in the middle of a neighborhood.

Nobody knows what this is! I happened to see it and when I asked we got shrugs and confused looks. But talk about history - piece of the actual Berlin wall - just standing there !

No one was here. Either they don’t know about it or don’t care. Either way it’s a cool piece of history to see.

I served in Berlin from 1990 to 1994 and had much higher expectation for this tribute. A single slab of wall and it's missing the smoothed rounded crown at the top of the wall. I believe this section was called "Chickenlips." Could have been better. At least 3 sections with all components to the wall. If you are going to do it, do it right!! For anyone who may visit Berlin, do not miss the 1.2km stretch of Berlin Wall at the East Side Gallery.

Weird one to review. It's a nice little piece of the wall but it's kind of hidden away. Fortunately my tour guide 'wife' had done some research about the area and this popped up.

Nestled within a small garden near the World Trade Centre site it is quite hard to find even with Maps pointing the way. It is an interesting relic of the times when western and eastern Germany were separated. It is completely out of context in New York and it is like they have no idea what to do with it apart from put it on display. There is no interpretation or signage. You only know what it is because Maps says it is and you can find mention on websites.
