Seriously, it just hit me when traveling through Street View. Most of British buildings wouldn't be considered finished in Poland. I feel like even most blocks in Poland look better: http://imgur.com/a/qzKk9 and that is a damn achievement. No wonder we are going there fixing this shit. What the hell happened Britain?

State housing project, they're not very creative. They pick a design they can make the most money out of and built a few blocks with them. Not everything looks like this - here's the street i lived in when i was still in the uk

Brings up a related question I've been curious about.

As I understand it, a council house is the Brit equivalent of public/welfare housing in the US--and from pictures I've seen, most of them look essentially the same.

To the question: Are council houses located in groups like welfare housing in the US, or are they dotted about/mixed in with the homes of actual homeowners not on the dole?

I ask as the "dull" look OP mentions makes perfect sense with council housing--it's not like they should get fancy housing, especially if they're just gonna destroy their handout the way welfarians in the US do. (Get a free/cut rate home/apartment, shit all over it and tear it up, then bitch about the state of it. Fucksticks feel no need to take care of it, and why not, they don't have to work for it.) In that sense, I'd rather deal with poor white trash in rural areas--even if their place looks like shit--at least most of them have to hold down at least rudimentary employment to pay for the trailer.

People here like the colour of normal bricks, we don't really cover them up. Bricks are what built this nation and are reminiscent of the industrial revolution. If you live in an American style wooden shed you'll be bullied.

They look the same because they're all built from a plan, this isn't exactly abnormal.

>>133142853

What the fuck, this looks the same as ours? If anything I would say you were copying our designs.
>>
Because retards like you flooded in after WW2. Britain is a small country. If Britain hadn't been so tolerant and allowed so many retards to weak to protect themselves from the Germans in and the multitude of niggers and poo in loos in modern times then maybe we might have more space for better housing. You goddamn freeloading sons of bitches ruined it for us natives and now you complain.
>>
>>133139255
Ireland is even worse.

The problem is that it's so cloudy and it rains all the time. As a result you seldom encounter a bright surface - green algae grows on everything, even though you seldom notice it.

I've been photoshopping images of brickwork and gardens the last few weeks at work. It's hell making the British Isles look photogenic.

I heard there were like 30 pieces of gum on every tile of sidewalk in London but I thought it was bs until I visited. If your people can't not act like animals and toss them in the garbage why not just ban gum altogether the way Singapore does? Seems in line with the general nanny state doctrine you've adopted and would serve some good.

>>133143930
They're built up in their own neighbourhoods. Shithole the lot of them. Grew up on one, they're either full of old cunts or immigrants. The majority of them were built as one house but have been cut in two with one family on each floor in a one or two bedroom box. Lots of crime and few jobs around.

>>
>>133143249
This area is much nicer. :) I also noticed one more thing - Polish buildings are generally higher. We are building multiple level buildings in the village even if the building plot is pretty big. This is interesting difference.
>>
>>133139255

they fit the weather conditions, they are easy to navigate, pretty simple to build so they can be built quickly and efficiently. these are the older houses.

the newer houses are a cluster fuck. the streets are just ridiculous going all different directions, the building work is shoddy, cheap and quick.

old houses were built to last, new houses are built to fail to keep the money rolling in.

>>133146527
It depends on localization but between $80000 - $150000 for nicely finished house. Because of the low birth rates there is a lot of empty houses for sale.

the quality of our architecture is inversely proportional to how new it is

>>133146839

They will probably be less than that. £100,000 would be my absolute maximum and that's if they were close to a town or something that was desirable.

The other thing is that usually one 'favela house" is home for maybe even 4 generations at the same time. That means that Da Silva built the horrible house, than 20 years later, Da Silva Jr couldn't afford rent, so he built another horrible house on top of his father's house and so forth.

I personally like it. I can see what you mean, though: there is little building diversity. British suburbs look quite bland in the eyes of foreigners. The proper rural areas are very, very nice though.

a lot of western stuff is preserved in Colorado.
Including old mine shafts/equipment, and steam trains.
Colorado isn't the only western state, but it did the best job preserving that history.
Worth a visit if you like Western.
Also check out Jackson, Wyoming during one of their western themed events.

Only ghost towns and those preserved as tourist attractions. Even the small towns of the 1950's are becoming small cities.

I like small English or Welsh villages myself, having visited a few back in the 80's.

Central and Northern european architecture is superior to southern and western (as in UK, Ireland, France) because they only build in stone and only in grey. Makes you fucking depressed.

Actually, renovated commie blocks are really colorful.

In my city nearly every commie block is renovated (good 95%) and each one got diffirent color(s).

yeah there are a few tourist destinations in the midwest near highways that have preserved this for the sake of novelty.

It's actually original norwegian architecture. Towns that weren't burnt up in WWII look like this.

>What the hell happened Britain?
Well in the 60s & 70s, it was commie government who hated aesthetics so built bleak commie blocks everywhere, then more recently it was pleb property developers who's only consideration are profits, plus architectural & design skills are not required by the people who give permission for buildings to go up, so good design isn't a priority for them, but yes your assessment is correct, British building is in a terrible state, shame because in the past many beautiful buildings were lovingly constructed by craftsmen, but sadly it's all gone to shit now.

Well I'm talking about the actual bureaucracy. You know the immigration process. I can certainly afford to live in Iceland for as long as I want. I'm just wondering if you can give any insight to if it is difficult to move to Iceland.

I'll google it in any case but it's nice to hear from a local how it is.

I lived in England for about 2.5 years for work. THe council flats and row houses were some of the most depressing things I"ve seen.

NOt as bad as detroit or ghettos in US, though

I like English walled cities like York. Wish we had nice urban architecture in Wales. All of our "cities" look like modern art shitholes.

People generally are incapable of designing or building buildings. The average jewed white has no idea what a beautiful building would look like.

Detroit doesn't qualify as a ghetto. It's more like a Demilitarized Zone.
