"Illegal"

i-it isn't actually illegal? right? @Andrew Popa 2.0

2020-03-22 13:14:07 UTC  

Build trains

@Ethreen42 I mean, urban planning in most of the US is quite fucked up

2020-03-22 13:14:39 UTC  

Imagine letting the government decide on zoning when all the new urban planners are post modernists

2020-03-22 13:14:50 UTC  

i dont know if its just neighborhood gossip but my family was told that we should close or windows cause choppers will come by and spray some disinfectant along the houses

Those sort of structures are not neccesarily illegal but the city council is not gonna let you build them

2020-03-22 13:15:12 UTC  

And the thing is

2020-03-22 13:15:40 UTC  

They provide affordable housing for more people using the same area whilist also looking better

2020-03-22 13:15:43 UTC  

We will never get another zoning plan like they had in Paris in the 19th century <:why:462286147473637407>

i know pinks , our resident pony poster, either left or got yeeted

2020-03-22 13:17:03 UTC  

Also it's not neccesarily urban planners being "post modernists" as much as it is them wanting to provide affordable housing for people

2020-03-22 13:17:21 UTC  

The point is, single homes don't always cut it in dense urban environments

2020-03-22 13:17:22 UTC  

I’m the last hors poster

Tbh the best quote from a Russian politician is this america is being invaded by blacks and Hispanics

2020-03-22 13:17:31 UTC  

They make housing prices sky rocket

2020-03-22 13:17:43 UTC  

But you can have it both if you balance it right

2020-03-22 13:17:50 UTC  

Both single homes and apartment buildings

2020-03-22 13:18:05 UTC  

And on top of that you can have more beautiful architecture

2020-03-22 13:18:09 UTC  

@Andrew Popa 2.0 the problem is also their planning is more focused on property value over livability and natural expansion

2020-03-22 13:18:10 UTC  

Like the one shown in that image

2020-03-22 13:19:04 UTC  

Getting a permit in places like San Fransisco is like passing a camel through the eye of a needle

2020-03-22 13:19:15 UTC  

Literally

2020-03-22 13:19:30 UTC  

Because the housing prices are insanely high, yes

2020-03-22 13:19:44 UTC  

That's why California desperately needs a zoning reform

2020-03-22 13:20:01 UTC  

Thankfully their new governor approves of that apparently

2020-03-22 13:20:12 UTC  

High housing prices also enable people to mortgage their property for debt

2020-03-22 13:20:45 UTC  

In a way I have also seen this where I live

2020-03-22 13:21:22 UTC  

You have authentic architecture clustered in the old town center surrounded by communist era apartment block and you have single family homes in the suburbs

2020-03-22 13:22:13 UTC  

love that guy

2020-03-22 13:22:19 UTC  

pretty funny

2020-03-22 13:22:36 UTC  

And you have brutalism uglifying your skyline

2020-03-22 13:23:17 UTC  

But the main issue is not providing "beautiful" architecture as much as it is providing affordable housing
