Berlin between Mollstraße and Karl-Marx-Allee
Posted by skohlmann on 22 December 2008 in English. Last updated on 23 December 2008.I've added some footways and service ways in Berlin between Mollstraße and Karl-Marx-Allee. There are some service ways for the buildings made with precast concrete slabs. I also fix the name of the street between Bezirksamt Mitte and the housenumber Karl-Marx-Allee 3. Former the name was Weydemeyerstraße - I'll ask some residents between housenumbers Karl-Marx-Allee 5 and 11. They know the name of the street as Karl-Marx-Allee and not Weydemeyerstraße («Weydemeyerstraße? No, it's down there…»).
The crossing between Karl-Marx-Allee and Berolinastraße at Bezirksamt Mitte is closed for cars using bollards. I'll change the name from «Lichtenberger Straße» to «Platz der Vereinten Nationen» and add the missing car way between the two Weydemerstraße parts.
At least, I also add all housenumbers in the quater - the housenumbers of Weydemeyerstraße: chaotic.

Just want to say it's appreciated to see posts in English. The Germans are fairly active on the OSM diaries, and although all those posts sound interesting, my German is so far away (~4 years) I can hardly understand anything.
Just a suggestion: maybe adding more direct links, either to a closer zoom, or to related nodes and ways (e.g. Lichtenberger Straße), because at zoom 14, locating the discussed area in a busy place like Berlin can be a pain.

Thanks for the hint. I've added some links.
