Quite frankly, I would not want to be in a car, tram or bicycle at Berlin during the 1900's. A city that beautiful could only be enjoyed at 2 mph or less.
You're displaying a bad case of romanticism. I don't know what makes you think that living in a city back then made it more beautiful or enjoyable. I am almost certain that the societal class structure that existed back then made many people's lives more miserable than you think.
