Most new construction these days is so good damn ugly. They threw up some new high-rise in my city a couple of years back. It is square (apparently the only shape taught in architecture school these days), way too tall, and clad in brown sheets with windows slapped on at random all over the place. Because fucking up the where the windows go is about the only tool in the box for architects to impart soul onto the oversized refrigerators they keep putting up.

I kinda of like cheap concrete construction from the latter party of the 20th century better. It is not exactly pretty but at least it is honest.
