52 Stories: #17 Ralph's first Kebab
I met Ralph, he tells me that he has lived in Köpenick since 1983. He thinks he is lucky, because he still has an old contract for his flat but many of his friends have already moved away. "In the past there was more cohesion", he tells me, "today we don't know each other anymore", that's a pity for Ralph. When the Berlin Wall fell, Ralph cried with joy. He can still remember exactly how he went to the West for the first time and ate his first kebab. His favorite place in the district is...
52 Stories: #14 When the pubs are missing
Mr. G., this is Jürgen from Plänterwald. As he says, he was forced to move here. Because when his wife left him, he didn't want to live in the big apartment anymore. Because sometimes it's not always about wanting, but also about affordable living space. He then came to Treptow-Köpenick and moved into an affordable "shoebox". That was 13 years ago now.

Ingrid is 77 and we met in Plänterwald. She goes for a walk here every day, her round and preferably with her granddaughter.

She thinks it's great that she only has to cross the street once from her apartment and is right in the forest and by the water. She has lived near the Plänterwald since 1998, but has been in Treptow-Köpenick since 1975. She is not a native Berliner, but comes from...
