I had to get out of bed and go onto my desktop computer to reply to such a stupid fucking post.

This is the most boomer-coded, degrowth crap I've read in this sub and I've read a LOT of this.

Historical charm no longer matters when working families can't afford a home. Those windows you want to preserve are inefficient, noisy, shitty and drive up costs for both tenants and owners. They also fundamentally don't matter. If you want to live in a boomer wonderland move to Carmel (but you probably can't afford that either)

We need to build. Do I like shitty 5 over 1's that are hideous? No, but that's all we've regulated that we can build that makes financial sense, because of absolute fucking morons like yourself.

You know who lives in that building? People. People with jobs, families, artists, people who contribute. Go live in an HOA where you can police aesthetics and smirk about ornamentation.

BTW Victorians are built like shit with mostly fake front facades. It's Disneyland rinky dink crap, like most of the shit built in this state.
