Grey sky view construction site and graffiti scrawl painted side of German Reich Railway Company Offices, Voss Strasse, Berlin

---

The building in the view is part of the German Reich Railway Company Offices and is the only building in Voss Strasse surviving World war 2. Groundwater, on average, is only 2 m below the surface in Berlin, so, when new building work starts, impeding groundwater needs to be drained out off the foundation pit. In the background. Pink pipes drain groundwater from the building site next to the buidling .
