>>1342091you know, fuck it i love these kinds of apartments. they're not as good as the ones in paris but they have essentially the same design and function. mixed use, 4-6 stories high, repeatable pattern. if you filled entire city blocks with them it would be a staple to hold the area up. dramatically increases housing supply, offers storefront space, looks nice. they should build them all the fuck over.
that street parking is cancerous though.
>>1341975honestly the low density in nu-world cities is in large part due to having fuckhueg streets. all that wasted space adds up. for the same distance yuuros could fit in 15 blocks where burgers can only fit ~10. that makes a difference. reminder street parking is the unspoken evil that is destroying density.
i have nothing against being more than 6 stories though. but the larger issue is the sheer wasted square footage dedicated to cages.
>>1342135Why couldn't they put that shit inside the building that already existed? what trash. they could have filled in the space with anything else. cool businesses, offices, apartments. instead they rip down the one thing that makes the town unique and put in generic american nowhere nothing-town starter pack 1: the stripmall.
PA is a shithole. honest to god it's a fucking shithole. everything cool goes to shit, and the empty space is filled in with shit.
