Plans have been revived to develop part of the site of Berlin’s Tempelhof airport for housing.
The airport, which played a leading role in the Berlin airlift of 1948-49, has been left untouched since the last plane landed in 2008, partly in deference to its history and partly because many Berliners like it that way.
Now the two parties likely to form the next city government, the Christian Democratic Union and Social Democratic Party, have said they will look at building on at least part of the 900-acre site.
Previous plans for the site have included a man-made mountain and a zoo.
