Probably the cheapest visualization I ever created, but since Ben Fry has done the same before, I think I’m allowed to do so, too. This map simply shows all streets and railroads of Berlin. Likewise as in the US version, one can identify relevant geographic features like parks, rivers and lakes at places without streets.

Thanks to the kind folks at OpenStreetMaps and cloudmade.com, creating this image took me five minutes, literally. Three minutes for downloading the Illustrator document and two for a little editing.
