Awesome video, David. I like your energy and the information you present. I stayed in Potsdamer Platz when I was in Berlin years ago and didn't realize that there was so much to do in the area. I'll definitely have to go back and explore more of that area. I have a video on my channel where I explore some of the neighborhoods. Greetings from Michigan, USA!
It's not true that the traffic tower was made in the US and then shipped. The design was by Jean Krämer and the construction was contracted to Eisenkonstruktions- und Kunstschmiede-Werk Eduard Puls GmbH. However, it is true that the inspiration came from New York.

Do you think that a country that has built the largest passenger ships of its time (Imperator, Vaterland, Bismarck, Europa, & Bremen) needs to build a traffic tower abroad ?
It used to look buch better in days by gone... I don't know really why but I don't like modern bulldings in European cities... We all know for Germany it some cities it was the only way to rebuild everything
