Birmingham comes to mind. Lots of concrete, big ring roads cutting through everything.
It's unfortunate because there's still a few historic buildings from before that era suggesting what might have been.
- jeffbee 5y agoNo love for the roads, but many of those brutalist buildings in Birmingham are considered masterpieces of architecture. That's why they are listed. And I can't think of one from before 1960, either.
- bombcar 5y agoSome would say they had to be listed to be prevented from being torn down.
- lmm 5y agoNeighbouring Coventry is a more complete example, being smaller. Croydon also has a similar reputation.
