Show me what new buildings look like in your cunt.
USA: these are popping up in everyone's downtown.
Show me what new buildings look like in your cunt

Stop making this thread.
Logan Johnson
You hate discussion?
Parker Thomas
They look the same all around the world.
Parker Lopez
5 story apartment buildings with brick façades on all sides
Owen Ross
This
Jace Harris
They built this in my hometown recently. It's a museum
Evan Nelson
I can find the same in Switzerland
Alexander Jackson
Awful “design”
Tyler Ramirez
Lol they just built something like this at my school. They set up dorms, a Trader Joe’s, and a few restaurants all in the same giant building
Asher Mitchell
>It's a museum
isn't that ironic?
Landon Davis
You mean because it's new looking? Lol I guess
Aiden Harris
That's usually how it goes.
Retail on the bottom, apartments above.
Jordan Bennett
Why?
Parker Perry
Honestly man...that's hideous
I'm sorry to see that
Jacob Jones
Remember them government of Moscow decided to tear down old commieblocks?
This what they build on their place.
Matthew Mitchell
What an outstanding architecture.
Logan Rogers
I've never seen a residential building this tall in my life.
Maybe, because I've been to NYC a few times. But I don't even think their skyscrapers are residential.
Carson Sanders
Basically like a clusterfuck made by architects on speed.
Oliver Gonzalez
You think these were built in Stalin era?
No, they were built after 2008.
Landon White
Clusterfuck designs like this are how the best cities are made. The architects know that.
Look at Italian and French cities
Isaiah Richardson
Forgot pic
Andrew Gray
A lot of skyscrapers here are mixed use. Lower part have offices and upper half have apartments.
I think it pretty common practice.
Lucas Flores
I mean, they are very functional and clean and they have nice interiors. I personally dont like it though.
Jeremiah Barnes
That's pretty cool
Eli Edwards
Meant to reply to
Chase Allen
What are you talking about? Legendary round commieblock was built it late 70s for 1980 Olympics in Moscow.
It also shows versatility of technology, you can build pretty much any building from prefabricated elements.
Liam Lopez
Robert Diaz
Hong Kong
Benjamin Campbell
This seems very inefficient for multiple reasons. A lot of unused space outside, awkward angled and curved interior walls, etc. What are the advantages of building such a building?
Nathaniel Wright
Built 2017, I moved in last year in April.
Owen Stewart
Doesn't get any more standard than this here right now. All new areas look this this.
Blake King
>Hong Kong
Aiden Allen
Open air prison.
Jackson Hughes
Ant colony
Dominic Wood
I like these kind of structures honestly
Joshua Stewart
Fuck gentrification
Henry Perry
None, but socialists tried out commieblocks in every possible shape and arrangement.
And the nice thing about socialist commieblocks is actually that they're surrounded by lots of green and not crammed together block by block, but everything still remains decently walkable or busridable because all the shop locations and bus routes and block positions were planned out beforehand. Here's a nearby commieblock planned city from where I live, and in fact the largest planned city in modern times in all of Germany, my dad basically grew up here.
Hunter Butler
How loud are apartments in your cunt?
Jaxon Diaz
Older apartments tends to be poorly isolated with thinner walls, but the newer ones are much better.
Bentley Perry
Yeah I much prefer commieblock areas to these british style working class houses
Ian Butler
John Morris
Really, really, really depends on the type of construction. Pre-WW1 buildings are basically built like bunkers. Immensely thick brick walls. You'll never hear your neighbors, if anything you'll only ever hear some slight footsteps from the apartment above through the wooden floor, or people using the staircase through the apartment door. Pre-WW2 buildings are still pretty decent, but not quite as good because a lot of them were built as cheap social housing after WW1, though still with brick. After WW2 the quality varies wildly, for once between West and East Germany, and secondly between different eras or price points of construction. Early commieblocks in the east for example were still quite decent, but they must've changed the composition of the premade wall sections at some point because in later, more cheaply built commieblocks you can literally hear dogs barking through the wall multiple apartments away, and you'll hear footsteps from the apartment BELOW. Absolutely god-awful. Modern constructions are preferable to that, but even then you'll find some that are rather cheaply built and a bit audible inside.
Aaron Cox
Teach us the secrets of finnblock elegance.
Connor Barnes
Actually glad I live in these good old style commie blocks compared to modern buildings.
Nathaniel Hall
Thanks for the responses. Anything to look for well built apartments?
Nicholas Martin
lol imagine not having to use your car to go shopping
must suck living in america
Xavier Gonzalez
These actually were really aesthetics. Shame they ditched the design and started building generic commieblocks in the 70s
Josiah Robinson
That's pretty
Jordan Morales
>perfect lines ruined by retarded steps in the window hight for staircases
Carson Cook
like this
Cooper Price
oops
Tyler Cooper
another new building, this one's almost finished
Owen Thompson
He just wants to talk about who is white, whose country has more niggers, etc.
Actually talking about people's contries is over his head.
Thomas Lopez
Why?
It makes our cities nice places to live, for the first time in our history.
Adrian Lewis
Seattle is starting to look just like that and it's sad. They built one of these abortions right next to my building and the units will be open later this month.
Nathaniel Reed
Nice for whom?
Lucas Harris
Interesting. I thought in western europe they just built most buildings right up to the sidewalk.
You have little patches of grass like us
Hudson Adams
The white professionals who live in them.
I guess you're one of those SJWs who screams about displacing minorities every time white people clean up a neighborhood.
Cameron Green
based
Carson Allen
Yeah. I guess I am, since I don't pretend that poor people exist. If a law or practice is bad for a city's poor, that means it's bad for the city, since they are a huge part of it.
Gavin Rogers
Don't pretend that poor people DON'T exist, rather.
Ryan Taylor
Only disgusting skyscapers
Evan Green
That would be such a cool view, though. Apartments in high buildings go for big money in America for that reason.
Jordan Morris
Rich white people. Gentrification increases homelessness, poverty, commute times, suburb development, crime.
Nicholas Torres
Exactly.
Thomas Jones
Isolation is actually important if the country is cold, and you should consider that isolation also holds sounds from the street and neighbors out as well.
Gavin Reed
Yeah, they're planning on turning Mumbai into like a new york type City with skyscapers everywhere. Not really a big fan of that myself. Thankfully UNESCO designated the older, stylistic buildings in the city as a heritage site so they can't raze them down to make way for more skyscapers.
Ethan Cook
Building in the city increases building in the suburb?
Making neighborhoods safer increases crime?
Buildings homes increases homelessness?
Increasing the amount of rich white people increases homelessness?
That's more cognitive dissonance in one post than I've ever seen.
Noah Jackson
Meant to say
>Increasing the amount of rich white people increases poverty
But you get the point.
Americans have pants-on-head retarded views about cities.
Asher Hill
That's incredibly interesting architecture.
Incredible mix of Eastern and Wectern together.
Matthew Gutierrez
yeah it was built at a time when Hungarian architects drew heavily from oriental styles as they also fell to the we wuz mongols and shit meme, that's the reason for the eastern influences on a mainly neo-gothic building
sadly it was damaged heavily during WWII and the commies didn't bother with a proper refurbishment. thankfully our gov decided a couple of years ago to rebuild most of the buildings damaged or destroyed during commie rule, and this one is next on the list
Parker Diaz
Beautiful! Shame you don't see new buildings of this quality and timeless style in Europe any more.
Lucas Fisher
Old towns have uniform architecture. These new projects just slap a bunch of clashing styles next to each other and rotate them in wacky angles, it looks pretty bad.
Sebastian Carter
Something I've noticed about many of these new buildings is that the floor plans are awful. In old houses they're simple and functional, meanwhile they make no sense in newer developments and I don't even know how you're supposed to furnish a room that has a 45 degree corner or something
Evan Hughes
Yeah it's really funny how developing a neighborhood is supposed to be bad. Whites just can't do anything right huh. When they move out of a shitty neighborhood, it's called white flight and it ruins the area. When they move into a shitty neighborhood, it's called gentrification and it ruins the area. Funny how this works
Thomas Morales
ahh yes, how to make urban facades more vibrant:
>openings should be placed in a random unorganized matter, jeopardizing the entire structure
>tweak random compartments by extruding them a bit hehe
>add quirky pergola on rooftop that no one will ever get to use
Charles Jackson
After living on a hideous college campus where every single building had to be "collegiate Georgian," I now agree with Erdogan about architecture. No regulations, no uniformity, just bribes
Mason Green
Literally the new commieblocks
Ian Myers
Are you a rich white person?
Blake Moore
Either like this:
Nicholas Edwards
some extension to upmcs already massive hospital system in my city
Henry Evans
Your first and last greentexts are incorrect. Yes the architectural style is pretty shit. Function is overall good though.
Aiden Mitchell
Or this:
Nathan Sanchez
Once a century old old town and heart of the city
after the bombing free space
Now this
Carter Wilson
that's not the street, thats the backyard.
Nicholas Howard
Honestly wouldn't be bad if they bothered to put some fucking frames around the windows.
When did tasteful windows become a crime
Jacob Long
We are trying to make it so you don't have to use your car to do everything.
But far-left and far-right people are making it difficult. They try to block new development in the city.
Jonathan Kelly
They renovated this building from 1879 in 2004.
All expensive appartments niet but beautiful
Charles Mitchell
i'm a functionalist as well, i just don't see how these random tweaks in the facade serve the latter
Jeremiah Cox
Dutch buildings look like a nicer version of English buildings
Don't tell them I said that
Colton King
Well I'm white and a person, but I don't know how I'll pay next month's rent
Ian Kelly
Jordan Cox
It seems like they could go with a pretty plain facade and just make the windows fancier. That was like 90% of traditional European buildings.
Probably same in beirut
Blake Sanders
It's because they're better
Brayden Reyes
Disagree
Ethan Martinez
Joseph Price
Brandon Wright
>downtown
>six stories
Thomas Flores
The European way, human scale
