From the same era as the pebble-dash, I guess.

The reverse side of the Old Town Hall, with a concrete pillar which I imagine belongs to the New Town Hall.

Stairs from the Westspange bridge leading to down the Bürgerpark (Citizen's park) — more used by graffiti sprayers than pedestrians.

IR 70

A war memorial on the banks of the Saar. IR stands for Infanterie Regiment. On the reverse side is a simple listing of the six figures of terrible historical significance: 1870-1871, 1914-1918, 1939-45.

Concrete curve

Autobahn A620, the main traffic artery of Saarbrücken, creates its own concrete landscape along the south bank of the Saar. There are plans (Stadtmitte am Fluss) to bury this autobahn in a tunnel, changing the aesthetics, dampening the noise and sparing the autobahn from the regular flooding it now suffers.
