The absolute peek of urban hell





Over 50,000 people on only 6 acres.

No I don't want to live in a place like that. No it isn't gorgeous. But it is amazing that this ever existed.

Versailles is every bit of what it is said to be. Pics don't do it justice.

Fallingwater is almost 90 years old and still looks gorgeously futuristic...

I'm enthralled with far away buildings

Here's St Helena Island.

Architecture is quaint and seaside from the bottom up.




Nothing sophisticated, but charmingly colorful



Does this stairway count as architecture?



Anyways, I find it amazing given its location... But also instantly recognizable

I’ve been so lucky seeing the most gorgeous cathedrals in England and Rome.
I disliked Florence and as much as I loved Norte Dam i’m Not going nuts if they make the rebuild modern.

My favorite building is still the Disney building in LA

I know I'm supposed to be appreciating, but how about striking serious emotion?

Anything more Russian?





Stalin's architectural input in the middle of the city...

I watched a documentary about St. Helena. Fascinating place with great history.
