Karl Marx-Hof

Heiligenstadt, Vienna

Built between 1927 and 1930 by city planner Karl Ehn, it held 1,382 apartments and was designed for the population of about 5,000. At over one kilometre in length (1100m, 0.68 mile) and spanning four tram stops, Karl Marx-Hof holds the distinction of being the longest single residential building in the world.

Nord Express by Cassandre, 1927

The "Nord Express" (Northern Express) was a train service introduced in 1896 by Compagnie Internationale des Wagons-Lits, a Belgian night train company. It left Paris and traveled via Brussels, Cologne, Hanover, Berlin, Konigsberg (now Kaliningrad) and Dvinsk (now Daugavpils) to Saint Petersburg.
After World War I the train was diverted to Warsaw instead of Saint Petersburg. It departed daily from Paris and Ostende, traveling to Berlin and from there - to Warsaw and in 1936-1939 - also to Moscow, three times a week. After World War II the "iron curtain" and air travel brought the end to this famous train.
