&gt; &gt; Nowadays, Checkpoint Charlie features a reproduction of the guard<br/>
&gt; house once manned by U.S. soldiers, complete with sandbag defenses and<br/>
&gt; the tall white sign declaring: &quot;You are now leaving the American sector.&quot; <br/>

 </span></blockquote>I seem to remember there was a piece of the wall left standinng opposite to checkpoint charlie (it&#39;s been moved from its original location across the street, now giving false impressions about the real geography, but the tourists&#39;ll never notice ...). I didn&#39;t consciously notice that it&#39;d been taken away. I&#39;ll look next time I pass CCharlie.<br/>
