@Andrew Popa 2.0 the problem is also their planning is more focused on property value over livability and natural expansion
Like the one shown in that image
Getting a permit in places like San Fransisco is like passing a camel through the eye of a needle
Literally
Because the housing prices are insanely high, yes
That's why California desperately needs a zoning reform
Thankfully their new governor approves of that apparently
High housing prices also enable people to mortgage their property for debt
In a way I have also seen this where I live
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
love that guy
pretty funny
And you have brutalism uglifying your skyline
But the main issue is not providing "beautiful" architecture as much as it is providing affordable housing
Because unfortunately enough "beautiful" architecture doesn't neccesarily cut it in big ass cities anymore
brutalism is purposely designed to dull spirits and pacify populace through sadness. you cannot change my mind
I wish we could just have less people
implying big-ass cities are worth conserving even at the expense of quality of life
In the context that in really really big cities you can't have authentic architecture all the time
Concrete jungles look depressing af
in an isolated sculpture maybe. urban architecture though? hurts to look at
However there are cases where you can make compromise
making compromises because reasons is how we got LGBT degeneracy seeping into children's education
And try to synthesize that authentic architecture into apartment buildings
i say no more easily abusable tolerance. any proposals for change should bring forth evidence or stfu
DON'T TRUST CHINA
CHINA IS ASSHOE
I mean I saw that picture in a post on R/Neoliberal and it really got me thinking
We can easily integrate more authentic architecture into dense housing
Imagine getting rid of term limits only to probably get kicked out of the top position because you mishandled a crisis
Imagine being Xi JingPing
