The administration building where we'll be attending lectures and many of the lecturers have offices.
The workshop! Here we'll hopefully be most of the time :)
The Bauhaus from the other side. We usually walk along here on our way from where we stay now to the university buildings.
When we move to Heinz-Röttgerstraße on Thursday 1 October 2009 we'll be staying beside the park for the study of animal and plant sciences. This impressive building, with bronze bears on either side of the facade, is inside the park.
Another worthwhile visit is to the Umweltbundesampt, a new building constructed behind the old station, shown. I thought the brick and plasterwork above looks like a beer bottle. Everyone else thought I look like a tourist.
The Umweltbundesampt and Niel. Note the bicycle shed to the right. This picture was taken on a Sunday, but on any other day the shed will be packed with bicycles.
The red brick building on the right links the new building to the old station that I was standing in front of previously.. the link is really cool. From a distance it seems the old people built something funky, but on closer inspection it becomes obvious that the odd-shaped red face-brick library building is new..
The library adjacent to the old station building
The Umweltbundesampt has an impressive glass courtyard housing the cafeteria and a 4 m high concrete wall that protrudes with lawn on top
