I'm having trouble imagining Americans being allowed to live in East Germany (especially East Berlin) before mid-November 1989. Reportage seems more likely to have come from the West Berlin AP bureau (why would they have 2 bureaus literally 10 miles apart, especially when one of them came with a lot of bureaucratic red tape?) with the reporters crossing the border when necessary.

That makes sense. (I'm writing a book set in Berlin in 1961, at which point things were rather different. Especially after August 13.)

Hi, sounds like you know about the AP in EB. Do you know by any chance their address in EBerlin? or at least the approximate location? I've been trying to find this out too, without success. Sorry for a diversion from the original questions :)
thank you!
