European cities but with large streets. Small streets are pain in the ass.

>>25638098 Pain in the ass for driving a car, but better for every other mode of transportation.

>>25638098 >Small streets are pain in the ass. Not for walkers :DDDDD

>>25638107 Cars are not going to disappear anytime soon. With large streets you can get enough space for cars and bycicles, tramway, more light, more trees, more places to park cars, etc. Even the cities who were rebuilt after WW2 bombings are not made this way except the main avenues. I don't know, nobody expected cars to be that popular.

Cities are hell

>large, spacious house with own backyard >small, cramped flat with bydło neighbors behind paper thin walls hmmm such a hard choice

>>25638164 this

Europe, what good is a detached house if you're a slave of your HOA boomer clique.

CBD: American Residential areas: European Suburbs: American.

>>25638085 >>25638164 Exactly. No city should have a population over 25,000 and that is still way too high

>>25638412 Mid-tier universities could have more students than that.

>>25638412 Anti-urbanism is a disease.

American cities are more likely to survive nuclear war. because they are so spread out, more people will survive if nuke destroys city center A european major city like Madrid occupied the same land area as Lubbock, TX (200K pop small city)

>>25638085 Ha! WARSAW has the best of two worlds! It is the most American city in Europe and the most European city in Europe at the same time.

>>25638593 All these Warsaw posts made me realize how irrelevant that city is in the bigger picture

>>25638164 City life is freedom. Who the hell wants to spend 10 hours per week driving?

Florence, Italy vs. American highway interchange

>>25638412 People have always built cities and always will because of the advantages and opportunities they offer. Rather than autistic screeching about how you hate cities (no one cares lol), just optimize cities for quality of life.

>>25638602 I live in a village and I spend like one hour per week driving.

alesund at night

>>25638691 That city is tiny. Imagine walking on 1 meter wide sidewalks, with buses and cars going on the streets nonstop. Italians are talking everywhere, music playing, tourist taking photos. And suddenly you see this fat american family wobbling towards you on the 1m sidewalk while you feel a bus passing by you so close it touches your clothes. It was fun walking this city

>>25638816 I've been to that city multiple times, it's one of the nicest cities in europe. I laughed out loud at your strawgrasping though.

Suburbs were invented to get away from niggers.

>>25639213 why are white people such cowards they run away from niggers? i though whites were superior

>>25639213 I'm OP and I don't refute that. I do think it's dumb that in America people don't have the option to live anywhere besides suburbs though. Government literally prevents us from building decent cities even though people want it.

>>25639236 Nobody wants it because nice cities means getting rid of niggers and most Americans love niggers.

>>25639193 Imo Bologna is much nicer than Florence

>>25639259 The real patrician choice is Siena, near Florence. But yes Bologna and Torino are nicer. Florence is still one of the nicest places in Europe though and nothing like that histrionic German described. In fact the reason it gets so many tourists is because it's so nice.

>>25639253 Eh making nicer cities just involves building more nice buildings there instead of parking lots. Developers are happy to build nice new apartment buildings and people are happy to rent apartments there. Government just needs to let people do it.

>>25639352 I am the histrionic german and in my opinion Florence was great during the rennaissance, but the city design cannot hold up to modern standards (cars and many tourists). Many italian cities face this. Have not been to Siena. Next direction will propably be Vigevano or Genoa
