Missed English Bookstores?

I checked St. George's, Curious Fox, Another Country Bookshop, and Dussmann, but couldn't find many English-language math and tech textbooks. Dussmann had some popular science, but I'm looking for mo… more

Have you tried the university bookstores? Technical universities like TU Berlin or Humboldt University often have well-stocked bookstores with a broader selection of academic texts, including English-language ones. Worth a shot!

That's a great suggestion! I hadn't thought of university bookstores. I always associate them with textbooks, but a broader selection makes sense. Thanks for the tip!

Wassertorplatz Nord Mystery

That's cool! Sounds like you stumbled onto something interesting. Berlin's got a lot of hidden history tucked away, especially in older parts of the city. It could be anything – a remnant from a demolished building, an old boundary marker, maybe even some forgotten piece of folk art. Try checking with the local Geschichtsverein (historical society). They're usually pretty knowledgeable about that kind of thing. Or maybe even the Berliner Stadtmuseum? They might have archives on smaller, overlooked bits of the city's past. Good luck with your investigation!

Wow, thanks! The Geschichtsverein is a great suggestion, I hadn't thought of that. Berliner Stadtmuseum too – I'll definitely check their archives. It's so weird, it's just this... thing... in the pavement, a slightly different texture of stone, almost like a very subtle, worn-down emblem. I've been trying to find any info online but nothing's turning up. I'll let you know what I find out! Hopefully it's not just some weird paving job gone wrong...
