Legacy of Kreidler # 3 - The Park: Innenstadt Mainstream years 1999 - 2006
From November 1999 until January 2006 Kreidler 's The Park studio was located in a massive concrete building next to the central station of Düsseldorf.
The 5-storey house had office rooms next to huge halls with railway-connections. It was formerly the main department of the Deutsche Bundes Post.
Kreidler rent their space as part of the registered association Innenstadt Mainstream e.V. - among artists like the hobbypopMUSEUM, Rupert Huber, musicians like Antonelli Electr., L@N, the Bad Examples, the company Background-records or EGO - the project-space for electronic music.

The Park refers to the photography on the cover of Weekend, shot by Stefan Schneider in the Düsseldorf Volksgarten, and - of course - the 1998 album Appearance and The Park.
