it's stupid honestly, and pretty embarassing at this point.

buildings were that size a hundred+ years ago when people cared little for what space they had in the cities.

now it's just pretending to be western, while talking about "WESTERN" world with disdain when it's for the eyes of the western world that they are embarassing themselves like this.
>>
The buildings either side are in the same general style. Apart from the fact that it looks better than it would if it were some out-of-style eyesore, some local council areas have certain requirements in heritage areas, so they might've had to do it like that.

I mean to say that eastern europe is basically just colonial Germany and Western like Brazil is Western for being just colonial Portugal.

And trying to convince this isn't being done just to fool a couple of western tourists is just being naive.

The UK actually tried to liberate us I think.

Because we were siding with France and started building a navy to invade the UK.
This also happened in WW2. At the end of WW2 Germany was trying to build a navy in the Netherlands to invade the UK.

But both were stopped in time.

whatever man, I'm not here to discuss wether Brazil is more western than Poland or not.

If some Poles think it's cool to pretend being western europeans and want to live in their cramped Dutch industrial revolution housing it's fine, have fun, just don't expect westerners to respect it and find it anything else than funny.

As you said "our country, our rules".
China does it too, so why can't Poland?

Looks way better than 'modern' architecture.

If their owners do not have enough money to make a reconstruction 'premium edition', that less than the same type of architecture as their neighbors is to be thankful for, imagine that you put there some buildings that completely breaks the harmony, that is what has past much of the West.
In my country hundreds of beautiful cities and towns were destroyed when the rural exodus occurred from the 60s, rejecting the classical architecture and opting for the commieblocks, as a consequence we have an immense amount of cities where you feel shame to live in them.
And seeing how they were before and what they have transformed makes you feel impotent, because the possible solutions are very complex and expensive, therefore you have to resign and accept that your city is going to have a shit of image until the day of your death

Why not build just something with a nice facade that woud go well with the surrounding buildings, but instead of making it (or making it look like, I don't know which is worse) 3-4 buildings just make it one?

As it stands it just looks like people are making something impractical for nowadays just to look good.
Which wouldn't be a problem, if we weren't talking about building whose reason of existing in the first place is practicality.

You're talking about Poland here. Gdansk was the entrance gate and main port of the Commonwealth of Poland and Lithaunia. You're retarded.
>>
what exactly is the alternative?

a commie block? some modern tall structure that will look horrible and cheap around the other traditional buildings? honestly, tell me what they could have built in it's place that would have been better?

i think it looks great. modern architecture, for the most part, unless done on a massive budget, looks absolutely shit. and even some of the stuff done on a massive budget ends up looking shit.

literally nothing wrong with wanting to maintain the aesthetic of an area if it already looks nice and serves it's purpose effectively

Even with this sky, these colors, this lack of sophistication, in this building >>74245008 I can fuck around in the appartment with no people looking at me, i can have a barbecue on the balcony, i can sleep normally because there's no loud drunk people partying every night, the air is cleaner and i can park my car somewhere.
