FILE - In this April 12, 2010 file picture German construction and traffic minister Peter Ramsauer, right, and Italian architect Franco Stella look at a scale model of the Berlin City Palace in Berlin, Germany. A rebuilt Prussian palace in Berlin. High-speed rail from Lisbon to Berlin. A new visitor center for Britain's Stonehenge. They're just some of the big-ticket European projects put on hold by the continent's government debt crisis. Deep in debt after decades of borrowing too much and still running big deficits from the recession, European countries are scaling back some of expensive building and high-speed transport projects that over the decades have given life on the continent much of its glitter and convenience.
