Honecker the estate agent

locations

information

Work on a huge new housing estate in Marzahn has been underway for a year now. The 11-storey prefab blocks are assembled from large panels and take about 110 days to put up. Housing construction is still a high priority for the GDR, which is why Erich Honecker personally hands over the keys to the family moving into the millionth flat.

{# Third-party scripts of the ARD video player. The player is not available as a package and expects jQuery and a few helpers as globals, so these stay classic scripts outside the module bundle. `PlayerView` (frontend/js/common/views/player.js) only talks to the resulting `window.ardplayer` namespace. Load order matters: jQuery and its plugins first, then the player core and its subtitle add-on. frontend/tests/markup.mjs reads this file, so the smoke test fails if a script goes missing. #}
