The bad: Because of the brothels, the street has been known outside Düsseldorf for decades. Now the establishments are to make way for apartments. For good. Naturally, this is welcomed by politicians, residents and businesses. Fame is fleeting, doubtful fame even more so.
The good: Roger Klüh was the first Düsseldorf resident to receive a "highly official award from the Cuban government" for his record boat ride. A screech of Castro was read out. Viva!

Roger Klüh was officially honored by the Cuban government for his record-breaking powerboat journey from Key West, Florida, to Havana.
He was recognized for achieving the fastest crossing between the United States and Cuba and for symbolizing renewed friendship and international understanding between both nations.
A personal message from Fidel Castro was read aloud during the ceremony by Raúl Castro, expressing admiration for Klüh’s achievement.
Roger Klüh is from Düsseldorf, Germany, and is the first Düsseldorf citizen to receive an official award from the Cuban government.
It marks international recognition of his courage, determination, and commitment to breaking boundaries—values that define both his legacy and the APACHE STAR brand.
