Martinstraße and Silberstraße, downtown Dortmund, 2008

Former Thier brewery. This area will soon be polluted by an ECE mall project. City council found having a mall right next to one of Germany's most frequented shopping quarters to be a good idea.

The face of Dietmar Bär, a Dortmund local and an actor popular nationwide, is showing on this Weingartenstraße billboard. Formerly situated in closest possible proximity to Hoesch Steel's BOS shop (Oxygenstahlwerk), Weingartenstraße used to be the dirtiest street in town. The pipeline in the background is part of the city's gas transportation network, connecting the various Hoesch Steel sites, air fractionation plants, and coking plants across town. Once much larger, the part shown still is transporting nitrogen. Dortmund, Germany.

Volkswohl Bund insurance company, former headquarters, 1970-built part, main staircase. Blasted February 17, 2008.

Insurances are an industry characteristic to the city of Dortmund that I haven't mentioned here before, and Volkswohl Bund is one of the insurance companies registered here. At the moment, it is replacing its headquarters. The new ones will be errected where the 1955- and 1970-built parts of former one stood.

Number 4, coke oven battery of Hansa Coke, Dortmund, Germany, during demolition

Even though Hansa Coke is a popular technical museum, attracting more than 20,000 visitors in 2007, large parts of the plant were demolished in 2005, including almost all gas handling and byproduct winning units, almost half of the cokemaking capacity, and the modern dry quenching facility.
