There Goes the NeighborhoodTwo reasons for living on my street, the condom shop and the cheese shop, have closed. This is a disaster. The condom shop, just in theory -- I didn't go in there every morning -- but what, please, is the point of living in Europe if you can't have a cheese shop a few doors away?
 Of course it's a sign of gentrification, rising rents, Berlin bohos becoming parents, etc. There was already a baby-clothes shop next to the condom place. (In case of product failure.) But guess what finally pushed the condoms out? Dingdingdingdingding Richtig! A "baby-mama spa."
Anyone who knows what that is, please enlighten me in the comments section.
