Summary After years of stagnation and decline, Berlin is suddenly growing at a rapid pace. Berliners and the club scene are feeling the downsides of the boom: first clubs are pushed out by financially strong investors, then the residents. The citizens' fight against displacement, gentrification and for a city that is still worth living in becomes the overarching theme of the decade. And citizens are constantly finding new means and forms of action to successfully defend themselves. Meanwhile, the increasingly out-of-touch mayor Klaus Wowereit no longer understands his citizens and makes a mockery of the whole world with a ruined building that was to become a major airport, while the old Tempelhof Airport becomes a refuge for refugees and the Neukölln district finally becomes a symbol of failed migration policy and criminal clan criminality. And as if that wasn't enough, at the beginning of the new decade, a pandemic sends the city, which is now truly a global metropolis, into a state of shock that changes everything. Welcome to the Berlin of the decade.
