Potsdamer Platz was finally destroyed in the final months of the Second World War in the battles that took place in Berlin. The Berlin wall crossed the west side of Potsdamer and this was the reason why it wasn’t built for many years.

The reconstruction of the district lasted for nearly 10 years and when this began, the area was completely empty. The architects only had the historical references of the place to go on.

The 19 buildings that can be found in the area daimlerChrysler were built according to the design of several international teams of architects, headed by the very famous Renzo Piano.

Nowadays we can find lots of offices, restaurants, expositions, shops, hotels and apartamentos Berlin, and all of these have been built with a high-quality design, in line with all the other buildings on the site.
