Berlin Wall Commemoration Press Conference

BERLIN – OCTOBER 21
A worker pulls out one of the approximately 1,000 giant, styrofoam’dominos’ that will be used to commemorate the fall of the Berlin Wall and that are currently stored at a warhouse after a press conference there on October 21, 2009 in Berlin, Germany.
The dominos, which are decorated with motivs having to do with the end of the Cold War, will be lined up in front of the Brandenburg Gate towards Potsdamer Platz and then will be tipped over to symbolize the domino-like fall of communism throughout central and eastern Europe in 1989.
