Very nice post^. Berlin is on my list of places to travel, which stemmed from an interest in the Berlin Music School, and the artists who have emerged from it - and, I certainly, would be interested in experiencing the Konzerthaus you have posted!

Octagonal houses were a great fad in the US in the mid-1800s, and many are famous and still beautiful today. The example above is The Octagon at Amherst College.
