Well some people are into modern brutalism and that's alright, but I am not (IMO 50s/60s """architecture""" is an affront to humanity), but to each their own I guess

I'm 50/50 on it, although I do like pre-WW2 American Urban Architecture.

Historical preservation was not a huge concern for most Americans until fairly recently. Also fires gutted many early American cities countless times over.

Savannah (Pic related) and Charleston are pretty unique American cities, in terms of architecture.

All relatively small but you can't have such a good aesthetic without suburbs to fit the people.

In new york, though, "pre-war" is a prized term. After the war America and much of the west entered a grotesque era of soulless mass production, building well-heeled commie blocks at best.

Unfortunately America had a big boom at that time and built up ugliness all around, while constraints in postwar Europe limited the damage this new aesthetic could do.
