The Dynamo in 2011

• ... that the Jugendkulturhaus Dynamo (pictured), a youth center in Zürich, was built from an old brewery after youth riots in the city caused by a grant of 61,000,000 Swiss francs to the Zürich Opera? Source: In German "Züri brännt In the 80's, youth movements formed and took to the streets of Zurich wanting more freedom for youth culture and more space(s) to develop it.... DYNAMO - SELBER TRETEN, DANN WIRD’S HELL (ed: Dynamo kick/trample yourself and then it will be light) The Youth office opened the Dynamo as a peace offering in 1988." The 61 million franc is supported by Also German. "Was das Fass... The opera house needed 61 million Swiss franc for renovation and expansion."
  • ALT1:... that the Jugendkulturhaus Dynamo, a youth center in Zürich, was built from an old brewery after youth riots in the city caused by a grant of 61,000,000 Swiss francs to the Zürich Opera? Source: (same as above)
  • ALT2:... that youth riots in 1980 caused by a grant of 61,000,000 Swiss francs to the Zürich Opera led to the City of Zürich creating the Jugendkulturhaus Dynamo? Source: (Same, just rephrased)
  • ALT3:... that explosions during the construction of the Letten Tunnel spoiled the beer of the Drahtschmidli, which the City of Zürich turned into office space for their Department of Vacation and Freetime? Source: German "VOM HEILBAD ZUM BRAUHAUS... "The beer brewing didn't last long - after explosions (from Building implosions) the beer in the storage was cloudy/spoiled and unsalable."
  • ALT4:... that after the City of Zürich closed down Platzspitz park, heroin users moved to Zürich Letten railway station, across the street from the Jugendkulturhaus Dynamo youth center? Source: English (about the closing of the park). This (downloads a pdf) supports the across the street claim. "1993 - 1995 "...The Dynamo kept developing, but the open drug scene (ed: more here Drug_policy#Switzerland) brought trouble. [The drug scene] moved from Platzspitz to the Oberen Letten, directly in front of the door of the Dynamo.".

• Reviewed: This is my first DYK (please be gentle), so I believe I am exempt? I will do one if not.
• Comment: Also, you only need to the most interesting DYK (not all of them).
