seems like everything in DC is constantly under rennovation. The cranes in the background ruin this photo.

It's almost the same
Not that much actually.
Less street cars
Why did Americans get rid of their nice buildings? Europe has the war as an excuse but you did it for no reason
Modern USA a shit.
1914
Jews
In that pic you can notice that people here used to drive on the left of the road.
is it true GM pressured the US government into banning public transportation just to sell more cars
Cheaper to build something new than to repair
Repair what? You had nothing to damage it
Only the buildings on the left are new - funny enough that building was designed by the same guy who did the pyramids in The louvre and a bunch of other high profile shit.
Basically I'm sure those buildings were derelict by the 80s, the city was poor as fuck after the depression and had to pay back 50 years of debt. None of those buildings had historic value and there are streets of them everywhere.
That place is now under restoration.
Forgot pic.
Those buildings were built in the 1800s for cheap then they were badly maintained by cheap fucks who inherited them.
Not to mention modern requirements on electrical, wiring, plumbing, etc.
That too
Brazilians also destroyed a lot of nice old buildings to build ygly commieblocks
My city looks the same. Not much changed.
You have to remember that blacks were banned from big cities in brazil until the 60s
Why is the cathedral mostly unscathed?

Completely burnt in 1865.

>hey guys I got a great idea! why don't we build an entirely red building? that wouldn't totally stand out for the entirely wrong reasons at all!

Here's the >American moment of the thread. A park doesn't need that much stone and street in it. If they'd opted for just grass and forest, they could have made it much more usable and better looking
What happened to the US. It used to have this sort of Neo-British feel to it. Now it's just sorta shiet lookin

Louis Theroux's special about Milwaukee that aired last night made me sad. The city seemed nice when I visited it for eighth grade field trip.

Not really. The panarama effect, quality and zoom out make it hard to see actual differences
Here's what it was like 75 years ago
It looks like there is only one building still there.

Most likely because it was made from stone instead of wood and paper.
