Density does not necessarily = improvement - look at all the apartments east of east gate - just made it slummier.

You have to actually have a good environment first.

And it seems every design that was once innovative keeps getting rejected by the city UNTIL it looks like one of these bland designs, then it gets approved - look at the build across from the alien park downtown - it went through 3 designs and each time it was less impressive until by the time it was modular and bland it was approved. I hate the "style" of this era if this is what it is - stacking rectangles upon each other is not a style - it is literally the bare minimum in design you can do. You can't even call yourself an architect or a designer at that point.

And randomly staggering windows just looks awful. At least these ones line up at certain intervals. I just.. I am so sick of a lack of ACTUAL design. Thank god for core urban.
