It would be much better and places like Dresden (pls no bully) and other European cities devastated by the war wouldn't have shit modern architecture

The Swedes went and ruined Stockholm without any war

Stalingrad was pretty nice before the eternal kraut decided to chimp out on it

i dunno why people wank over these kind of buildings there are some near where I live and they're ugly as shit

...

Cologne montages of how the city could look if it hadn't been destroyed

Really makes you think

Really makes you cry

art-deco and neoclassical architecture is shit anyway

Nearly all cities of my region have been destoryed by the allies bombing, which caused the death od thousands of civilians. Germany should have won for the sake of european culture

...

I guarantee you the interior of the building on the left would be close to unlivable by now.

Most buildings I never walk into

So they are mostly decorations

Well, if you wouldn't start shit with industrialized democracies, you wouldn't have giant Transformers powered by dancing black people showing up and wrecking your shit. Let's hope you've learnt your lesson.

It would be very beautiful and white if hitler won

I'm not german, i'm from normandy

Yeah.. a lot of these old European building look beautiful and sophisticated from the outside and then you see than the interiors are humid, smell bad and there's mold everywhere. Or the rooms and apartments themselves have weird designs (small area but with very tall ceilings, etc)

You got in the way.

Look on the bright side: you fields got plowed, your trees got pruned, and every house got free air conditioning.

Take the Savannah, GA approach and clear out the insides while preserving the facade

about tree fiddy

I agree, but look at a city like dresden or frankfurt-- architecture dating back to the 13th century

yes that's why every building in Paris, Amsterdam, London, New York, etc that is older than 100 years has been demolished or completely a moldy trashy shitheap. yep, its entirely impossible for any civilized country to maintain older buildings, you are so right. that must be why cities like Prague and Vienna don't exist.

For WW2 to have never happened, WW1 must not have happened either.

:')

Very

What is that round building? Is it still standing?

>not appreciating Soviet post-brutalist nouveau concrete

My school is the same, the facade is old while the interior is modern as fuck

I dunno, 10.6 million more slavs would have started families. That's a LOT of hypothetical modern slavs.

it's like fine caviar, you've got to have a taste for it

>not appreciating bauhaus modernism

Didn't the Poles rebuild Warsaw to look like it did before the war (or at least parts of it)?

Only a small part.

The whole city was glassed to the ground by Germans and Red Army stood and watched it with a shit-eating grin. Communists wanted to rebuild it in a modernist shit-style and they did. Warsaw looks like a fucking disaster now.

The cost of renovating really old buildings is sometimes incredibly prohibitive.

same here

Mike get out of this thread

the cultural marxist have arrive

Western part would be the same, Eastern part would be much better

How beautiful could Europe be today if Germans were exterminated during WW2?

>t. le architecture defener

Literally why?

Anyone know anything about the building at :11? looks cool as hell.

actually really depressing

More like le culture and history defender, Hitler and the National Socialists wouldn't have allowed this to happen.

My city would have looked like this

...

lmao it's their fault in the first place you kraut kunt

That's the Grand Theatre and National Opera in Warsaw, the building was restored after the war and still stands

once again the germanic destroys civilization

Depends on the country. Literally every side of WWII destroyed my country back then.

Thanks, I think I've seen it in a movie. Looks like it was rebuilt a bit differently. Notice the set of pillars to the left of the main set on the second floor. They're just a cosmetic overlay now. They also tried really hard to make the stone uniform, which is not an improvement imo.

can we all at least agree that neoclassicism is fucking stupid

...

Since when do jews care about Western Civilization?

Imagine a world without commieblocks...

I don't know what shiholes you're talking about.
In my life I've lived in many French and British buildings from the 17th century and they were maximum comfy.

you're just a poorfag

you realize the bauhaus was disbanded by the nazis and lots of their architecture was destroyed in the war as well right? or are you just pretending to be retarded

yeah, a really poor country with a shitty economy like german could *never* afford to rennovate all those old buildings and keep them looking nice. you would have to be super duper rich, like Poland, Belgium, or Czechia

Beautiful aren't they.

Pretty sure that is communist/leftist/multi-cultural graffiti there m8

These buildings dilapidate and loose their shine as time goes by, and unless the place is state owned don't expect it to get any better.

They don't replace these buildings with squares just to annoy you.

swedes can't do anything right can they?
