Deutsch:
"Das Atomhochhaus", Rubensstraße 93 & 92 erbaut 1956-1958 nach Plänen von Hans Schoszberger. Der Name "Atomhochhaus" bekam das Haus…

[i]n einer Zeit, da im geteilten Berlin die Gefahr eines Krieges zwischen Ost- und Westmächten groß und in der Presse die Diskussion um "baulichen Luftschutz" allgegenwärtig war […] .^[1]

Der Architekt jedoch wiederspracht der Behauptung, er habe das Haus bombensicher konstruieren wollen, geschweige den sicher gegen einen Atombombeneinschlag.

English:
"The Atom Tower" (German: "das Atomhochhaus"), Rubensstraße 93 & 92 built 1956-1958 according to plans by Hans Schoszberger. The name "Atom Tower" was ascribed to the building...

[a]t a time when the danger of a war between the East and West powers was great in divided Berlin and the discussion in the press about "structural air defense" was omnipresent […] .^[2]

The architect himself however denied having had the ambition to make the structure impervious to bomb strikes never mind atomic bomb strikes.
