Shoppen in Berlin?

komm mal in den wedding, speziell die torstraße richtung u-bahn osloer straße. da sind paar kleine läden wie "kleiderei" und "soda" die eigenmarken haben, keine standard-ketten. preise sind meist so 30-60 euro für ein kleid oder hemd und die qualität hält länger als hm. am samstag ist da oft auch ein kleiner markt mit handgemachtem zeug

schau mal in der neuköllner weserstraße, zwischen u-bahn hermannplatz und rathaus neukölln. da sind so läden wie "vintage & rags" und "humana" aber nicht die touristen-vintage läden, eher richtung second hand mit kuratierter auswahl. preise sind fair, so 15-30 euro für ne jeans, und die haben oft bessere stücke als die teuren ketten.

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the house facades those are often protected as Baudenkmal so nobody's allowed to correct them even if the spelling is outdated.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.
