Anywhere quiet to smash things?

honestly your best bet for noise is the Schrottplatz near the Mauerpark flea market, the one on Bernauer Straße. they have a designated area where you can smash electronics and ceramics for a small fee, it's not totally silent but the industrial noise covers it pretty well. if you want something more isolated, take the S-Bahn to Schönholz and walk into the Volkspark, there's a forgotten corner near the old train tracks where people dump stuff anyway, just bring your own targets and a hammer. cleanup is definitely appreciated out there

If you're up for a bit of a ride, take the M10 tram to the end of the line at Warschauer Straße and walk five minutes into the RAW-Gelände. There's a concrete yard behind the skatepark that's already covered in graffiti and broken bottles, nobody will bat an eye if you add some ceramic to the mix. Weekday afternoons are dead quiet in there and you can just leave the pieces with the rest of the rubble.

There's a Werkstatt in my neighborhood that does rage room sessions, I think it's called Wutraum on Torstraße. You pay by the hour and they give you safety goggles and a bat, way easier than finding a quiet spot outside and worrying about cleanup.

Worth noting that Berlin street names have official umlaut and ß rules that trip people up, so a sign showing "Strasse" versus "Straße" is not actually a spelling error, just an older transcription. Same with "ue" versus "ü" (e.g. "Kantstrasse" vs "Kantstraße"), both are considered valid renderings and you'll see the ß version on the blue Schilder and the ss version on older plaques or in databases that predate Unicode. If the difference you're seeing is between those two forms, there's nothing to fix and both are technically correct.

if the signs u mean are the old enamel ones on the house facades those are often protected as Baudenkmal so nobody's allowed to correct them even if the spelling is outdated. the binding version is whatever is in the Berliner Strassenverzeichnis plus the entry in the Liegenschaftskataster, so if u tell me the street i can point u to the right Bezirksamt Mitte or Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf page. tbh the merged district thing is real but the facade signs are a separate story, theyre basically museum pieces at this point

honestly thats super common in Charlottenburg, the district offices were merged from older Bezirke and nobody ever fixed all the Schilder. if its a real street you can check the official strassenverzeichnis on berlin.de, that list is what the Burgeramt actually goes by. which street is it? some of the Kaiserdamm / Kantstrasse signs are notorious for this.
