	ifa - Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen - Germany Today for Junior Journalists from the USA - James Robinson
		This is Scheunenviertel, Berlin's Jewish district – the street, Oranienburger Strasse, and the area – a strange juxtaposition of young urban sheik, art galleries, boutiques, ethnic and kosher restaurants, hip dance clubs, cultural centers and rampant construction, hell bent on erasing the slow decay of the Cold War era.
		This wave of immigration pushed the city's Jewish population to 160,000 – roughly one third of the country's total Jewish population, and anchored Scheunenviertel on the map as a major European Jewish center.
		In light of the challenges facing the Jews of Scheunenviertel we can only hope the status quo remains, that the police remain listless, the gun turret remains sealed, and the Jews in the neighborhood never awaken again to the chilling shatter of crashing, breaking glass.

	Berlin/Scheunenviertel - Wikitravel (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Scheunenviertel is a part of the Mitte district of central Berlin, situated north of the Spree River and the core districts of Unter den Linden and the Museuminsel.
		Scheunenviertel is conventionally bounded on the south by the River Spree and the Hakescher Markt, on the north by the east-west course of the Torstrasse, on the east by Rosa Luxemburg Platz (adjoining the Alexanderplatz district) and by the northern extension of Friedrichstrasse to the west.
		After this time the area became a refuge for Jews fleeing persecution and pogrom in Russia and Poland - by the 19th century, Scheunenviertel had emerged as the centre of the Berlin Jewish community.

		Complicating the area's current transformation, however, are the lingering effects of one of the darkest episodes of the city's history.[1] The tangle of streets behind Oranienburger Strasse is still informally called the Scheunenviertel, or "shed quarter," and it was once home to Berlin's oldest Jewish community.
		At the end of the 19th century, the Scheunenviertel became the point of arrival for thousands of Russian and East European Jews fleeing poverty and pogroms, and by the 1920s around half of the area's population consisted of immigrant Eastern Jews, Yiddish-speaking Ostjuden who often clung to Hasidic dress.
		In comparison to much of Berlin, which was virtually leveled by Allied bombing and the Red Army's assault on the city, the buildings of the Scheunenviertel and much of the surrounding area were relatively undamaged at the war's end.
