		Thoughts about the meaning of Berlin as a future location for the government became symbolically overloaded within the discussions about a design of the “heart of Berlin Republic” the city was supposed to become.
		One answer for me might be quite obvious: if one doesn´t take the old palace as an urban misfortune or a spatial obstacle a priori, the fundamental spur and basic incentive to prevent a re construction, is lacking.
		Yet, what the heck: if our thoughts about city and architecture won´t radiate from the major core, the spatial form – beyond its historical settings – not as ultima ratio but as quintessence, as source of all our arts, we won´t find toughness and depth within our judgements.
