Holiday Inn and Unis towers (architect, both: Ivan Straus)
As I was told in summer 2010 by employees still working in Holiday Inn the hotel was press centre from the very beginning.
placards in press centre in Holiday Inn   phone booths in the undergound passage to the briefing room Martin Potthoff / Cityscope in a really expensive room facing the courtyard. the seats haven´t been replaced since 2010, actually the are cream-coloured. there was hardly any pane in the city which hadn´t been replaced by unhcr sheet plastic. not only thermic insulation was inefficiant but using the inside spaces felt allways being outside, there was no difference of a sound being indoor or outdoor. quite few bubs were still working in the 8-storey high hall view from abandoned roomes facing snaipers alley towardsthe national museum (portraits of the complete staff see "culture". facing the parliament building the main entrance facing west hadn´t been in use for 4 years.
