White flight was a mistake, suburbs were a mistake, townhouses are good.

They weren't a problem when they were employed.

Each door leads to an individual town house. It's not an apartment building.

During the slavery. You would've just had to pay them measily for the same thing.

>>77388113
I see.

>>77387990
He's referring to slavery, but you could also look at Detroit in the 1950s and 1960s if you want a less edgy example.

Berlin is building very nice buildings nowadays. The style is inspired on Jugendstill, but then with few ornamentation.

It's horribly dominant though and doesn't really blend into its low height neighborhood. It's built a good bit off the city center. NYC has some nice examples of modern stone skyscrapers though, either completed or under construction. And nothing looks out of place in NYC.

I think finding large uninterrupted properties is a more urgent problem these days. A ton of new constructions are absolute pencil dicks.

You don't see this in Hong Kong, because most of the construction is new and they have virtually no height limits

>>77389574
Looks like hell.

>>77389638
From up here, yes

It doesn't but that's the point. We come from postmodernism and at this moment new styles are being created that hadn't exist before.
