One image conserves beauty, community, and traditional neighborhoods.

The other paves it over with soulless sprawl, car dependency, and globalist infrastructure.

One is conservative. The other is not.

@FloridianDev Kind of shocking. It’s not just conveniently left out of the renders - it is a bald faced lie on the part of @CityofMiami to present this as green space to the public and then switch it to an enormous parking garage.

@_sdlheat @Jay3130Jay @FOTPChicago Ohhhh yes, actually insane that Chicago blocked that and now it’s in LA - sad!

@_sdlheat @Jay3130Jay @FOTPChicago It definitely has a strong resemblance to the visual language used throughout the Star Wars films

@patwayyy @TODNewsHub No way - that’s the best part about Toronto. They’ve learned to unite the past and future.

@asleepornot @TODNewsHub Google does in fact exist.

@TODNewsHub @DesmondBoundsRE The "somehow" being decades of stress testing, research, engineering, and proven viability. This isn't "wood" - it's a man-made composite material of hyper condensed cross-laminated timber and adhesives with a strength-to-width ratio 20% higher than steel.

@dksmmu It is!

[Michael F. Schall @RealMikeSchall]

CLT is a heavily tested and proven building material with excellent stiffness, load capacity, and a great strength-to-weight ratio. Termites are not really a danger - standard borate treatments, barriers, and keeping it dry keep it resistant. Fort Lauderdale is just wrapping up a beautiful 6 story timber office building, and other CLT structures have been built all over the world.

[Duncan Cock Foster @dccockfoster]

The best American architectural invention is the stone skyscraper - the giant, ornately carved beautiful buildings that you see in midtown Manhattan, FiDi, Detroit, Chicago, etc.

I think we should be building way, way more of these

@growingmiami Midtown is turning into a great neighborhood.
