>mfw every at least mid sized Italian city has GOAT historical sites fuck I wish Poland was like this, I'd spend hours just hanging around and looking on the classical architecture
Aaron Jackson
Which city is it?
Cooper Garcia
Siena
Liam Murphy
...
Gavin Price
That's right!
Thomas Clark
Have a cool map with the construction date of every building in the Netherlands:
thanks lad ;)) probably next summer i'm going to visit Poland, are there any comfy city to visit?
Jose Bell
...
Robert Morgan
Yes every single one
Jordan Gomez
what do you mean by comfy?
Xavier Edwards
This building was so gorgeous. We should rebuild the waag
Easton Johnson
because it's a classical american skyline instead of a randumb try hard "neo-futurist" shit
Elijah Rivera
desu our city mayor (Slovak whore from a populist party) is going to fire the new chairman of IPR (an institution that does spatial planning for the whole Prague)
he is a renowned architect who has a degree in this area, teaches at our best technical university and actually knows what should be done
reason? they didn't deliver the new plan fast enough (SIX MONTHS for such complex (meaning fucked up by the gommies and post-revolution amateurs) urban enviroment is NOT enough)
I can see her appointing some fucking idiot from the party who will be bribed by huge developers to make even more ugly office buildings.
So. Fucking. Mad. Right. Now.
Leo Butler
Well, there's nothing wrong with futuristic skylines, as long as pulled off right.
But yeah, even in the future, it seems like they'll keep it subtle there.
Gabriel Long
Nieuwmarkt Waag best Waag
Dam Square isn't comfy anymore with all the tourists and the retarded dildo
Adam Davis
>I can see her appointing some fucking idiot from the party who will be bribed by huge developers to make even more ugly office buildings. thank the "democracy"
Connor Fisher
I mean what the fuck is this shit. Look what the Gommies have done to this city.
Elijah Sanchez
still looks almost completely American/Canadian lol
Luke Torres
I cri everitiem I see this
Ryan Green
how does this fit in?
Liam Powell
I think the problem is the roads around the square which give the square a cold feeling. The square could be made comfier.
Austin Martinez
idk were the commies really that fucking stupid it's completely irrational to me
like the West had their short period of fascination with disgusting architecture (le corbusier) but they didn't fill all their cities, including historic fucking centres with this puke tier shit
and how the fuck ANYONE could like this shit-realism architecture in the first place
it's literally ancient peasant tier architecture, pretty sure if you take some poor fag from 200 BC Rome/Carthage to some commie filled city now he will say "wew shit is even worse than used to be"(atleast when it comes to aesthetics)
Isaac Gonzalez
how it doesnt?
Jason Mitchell
it's huge
Gavin Scott
all the surroundings are trash commies shit anyway I wouldn't try to fit in I would try to bulldoze them
Jason Cox

Luke Hall
Is the Florence guy still here?
Julian Davis
Covadonga, Asturias.
Nicholas Phillips

Jose Ortiz
why the Spanish built so much towns in the mountains
Mason Taylor
...
Samuel Taylor
Spain is pretty mountainous for the most part. Covadonga was around the place where the Reconquista started (King Pelayo is buried there, in a cave), so strategy, basically.
Cooper Flores
I thought its a flat desert outside of Pyrenees
Julian Richardson
...
Ethan Powell
We could've had a beautiful capital with the best of the architecture, but we built a ugly city full of modernism. I really hate Oscar Niemeyer and everything he did.
What happened with the skyline competition?
Xavier Barnes
Gotta make due with the terrain you have you know, and mountains make for comfy living.
Michael Bell
Where I currently live and study. Top comfy, lads, top comfy.
Evan Hall
Italian living in Brno, dunno much about architecture in this town, but what I noticed is that this thing attracts quite a crowd...
Gabriel Smith
>What happened with the skyline competition? I kind of fucked up because started it when I had no time at all to bump the threads also /urban/ was fucking dead
first let's maybe try to make it more alive and more people posting in here because any skyline competition doesn't make sense if we have 4 posters and 20 posts on average
Benjamin Green
>Brno_Astronomical_Cock.jpg
Aaron Howard
Spain is actually mostly green and mountainous.
Their biggest mountains are in Andalusia, for example, and not the Pyrenees.
Elijah Jenkins
wwwat the fuck
I seriously thought its a flat desert lmfao
>3,478 why does everyone have taller mountains than we do? but ours look better desu
Nolan Smith
You think you have it bad? We're all mountains, and our highest point isn't even 2500m. At least our mountains are nice mountains.
Matthew Cox
our mountains aren't even 2500 either
you have goat landscapes ngl
Chase Gomez
>when we go from /urban/ to /geo/
Josiah Rivera
your opinion on Anders Breivik?
Parker Richardson
>when you go from /urban/ to Sup Forums But I see no real reason to like him.
Jackson Smith
You might have that impression because of how the country looks from space (and mainly stereotypes, most of them from Andalusia, although they also do have green landscapes and the biggest mountains, actually), but it's mostly because of the mountains, as this user said.
For example, Castilla-La Mancha (where Don Quixote takes place mainly) can be quite flat in some aeras, but that's not the trend and even then we have a lot of sierras.
We have, in the peninsula, a couple of deserts (one is a small microclimate near Zaragoza, while the other is in the southeast (Murcia and Andalusia), the hottest and driest region in the country).
I'd say that for such a small country (in comparison to, say, the US) we have a shitton of diversity and that's not even including the islands and the Autonomous cities we have in Northern Africa (Ceuta and Melilla).
Simply gorgeous, I like Huesca quite a bit.
Alexander Wood

Jaxon Hill
why he is a national hero of norway
Chase Reed
Spain isn't really that small but I get it
anyway Poland isn't diverse at all
90% plains, some hills and shiet, some lakes, and a very small part of real mountains
also a useless sea
William Gomez
He really just made everything worse, all for the sake of becoming a meme.
Jackson Murphy
MILANO I L A N O
Landon Sullivan

Owen Perez
Siena is really beautiful.
Contributing with another pretty based Italian square
James Wright
he killed some leftists
it was all for good
Alexander Davis
This aquaduct makes me feel well. Is it still used for the transportation of water?
Henry Ramirez
forgot pic
it really is mostly early 20's
Aiden Mitchell
They were all kids going through an edgy phase.
We just became more of a PC nanny state afterwards. It was a pointless attack.
Camden Lopez

Brody Hernandez
Trieste?
Joseph Jackson
>implying breivik is evil what the fuck guys stop memeing
Ryder Green
I wonder if Polish architecture is really shit or I'm just bored of it
Hudson Price
Hey buddy, I think you got the wrong board. Sup Forums is two blocks down.
Landon Hughes
It's German architecture actually
Jackson Stewart
>not sympathizing with your national heroes
John Kelly

William Torres
Yup, it's Piazza Unità d'Italia.
And this is from where I live
Grayson Garcia

Luis Barnes
>implying that Hitler-tier shit is worthy of being called architecture THIS is pure and unfiltered Polish architecture, and God DAMN is it fucking beautiful.
Robert Wood

Tyler Sanders
classic poland
is it true that historical polish cities were actually built by polish germans?
Ethan Ward
Well, all countries have ugly sides to them.
Carter Sanchez
>is it true that historical polish cities were actually built by polish germans? no?
Jaxon Mitchell
some countries have much more than the others
and barely any beautiful sides
Thomas Brooks
he means all the nice ones, in which case - yes
Dominic Diaz
Well, most countries are also much worse than Poland. Even on the commie aspect.
Besides, turn this thing 90 degrees, and it would be taller than Burj Khalifa. It's like a supertall that fell over.
Daniel Young
but that's not true
you fall for german memes no its like shit
Nolan Hughes
I like how the huge block feels intimidated by the small yellow one.
gommieblocks used to be pretty nice
Samuel Taylor
hijacking
Sebastian White
>tfw you'll never live in a long commie block Such alpha walls, blocking out the cruel world.
Samuel Ortiz
IT'S JUST NOT FUCKING FAIR
Juan Reed
what went wrong?
wow this looks like a futuristic defensive wall... everyone would have some kind of machine gun in his wardrobe and when the zerg rush came they would just mount it on the windows
Joseph Jenkins
>tfw you will never live in a great high rise apartment this is how housing should look like
