There's plenty of development which could happen in Berlin without touching Tempelhof. From my perspective, the worst use of land in berlin is the Schrebergarten[1]. These are little free standing "houses" with a garden which some families own and spend time in during the summer. I live close to a canal on the south-east side of Berlin, within the ring, and there are several patches of these within 10 minutes biking from my apartment. This is very well-located land, and from what I can tell it goes completely unused 6-9 months per year, and at best sporadically during the summer months. I understand that this is very traditional in Germany, but the idea that some of the most desirable land in Berlin is being used for some families to use a handful of weekends per year is just crazy. At least Tempelhof is public and serving hundreds or thousands of people every day.
