I was for a very short period of time in London and I do not see anything can be dreamed, starting for super-poor quality of ANY buildings... Mean quality I see resemble eastern-Europe ex-communist buildings of the poorer quality, just covered with moquette to hide the disaster...
Without speaking, of course, about pollution, traffic, noise etc. Perhaps for someone who have always live in a big town the level of service and public transport can appear really good, but if you ever live in riviera...
- scarejunba 8y agoHmm, how interesting. It looks like you mostly encountered social housing. Where did you stay and go?
- xte 8y agoIslington (live) to Fitzrovia (work), I see wood slabs covered with lean cement and moquette, buildings with only reinforced concrete directly painted or naked instead of proper well-finished plaster, panels and furnishings used as a quick way to cover unfinished/dirty things, moquette everywhere obviously dirty and crumpled... And no, they aren't social houses. Of course MANY countries, highly developed included, have poor buildings quality and poor cleanliness in general, France where I live now is one of these for my Italian eyes, Sweden is worse than France etc but worse than London/Newbury/Carlisle (parts of UK a have visited a little bit more than a touristic trip) mean building I only see few Easter European buildings... Oh, I do not like Paris or Berlin anything more eh! They are not a place to live IMO, however they have a less medium bad quality.
- scarejunba 8y agoInteresting. I suppose I mostly lived in new build in by Tower Bridge and on the other side in Kensington. Solid homes all. Or in older homes in the midlands and those were fine.
