De voorzitter van de welstandscommissie had er een geweldig verhaal bij. Ik heb er niets van onthouden, merk ik nu.
The chairman of the building inspectorate had a couple of great arguments in favour of the chosen design. None of which I am able to reproduce.
Reihenhäuser werden durch die Fassade, die verwendeten Materialien und durch die Position der Treppe geprägt. ODOS haben bei diesem Haus einen offenen Raum mit beidseitiger Terrasse durch den weitest gehenden Versicht auf innere Trennwände realsisert. Nur die Sanitärbereiche sind mit Wänden vom restlichen Raum abgetrennt.

De stad reproduceert het leven van mensen. En nog eens. En nog eens. En nog eens.
The city answers human life. And again. And again. And again.
Beetham Tower, Manchester.
From my series ‘Manc Block’.
Bij het bouwen van de maquette, vielen de model-huisjes steeds om.
De bewoners durven nog steeds niet hun fiets tegen de muur te zetten.
When building the model, the structures kept tumbling over.
The residents still do not dare park their bikes against the wall.A.L.X architect label xain “On the cherry blossom” Japan

Ik schrok wakker. Ik keek uit het raam en zag stad, zover het oog reikt. Gerustgesteld ging ik weer liggen en een vredige slaap kwam over me.
I woke up. I looked out the window and saw the city, and only city, as far as my eyes could see. Reassured, I lied down and a peaceful sleep came over me.

Motion sensitive lighting. Why doesn’t every city have this?
為何有些城市尚未採用感應式照明？

De parkeerwachter van dienst raakte behoorlijk van de kook van het vehikel in overtreding. Geen nummerplaat, geen ruitenwisser, geen bon, geen arbeidsvreugde.
The traffic warden on duty became confused of the vehicle in violation. No plate, no wipers, no ticket, no job satisfaction.

De ontwerper vond het perfecte samengaan van potlood, cylinder, waterijs en speeldeeg.
The designer found the perfect unison of pencil, cylinder, popsicle and playdough.

Iets over een zichtlijn, en waarom dat belangrijk is. Maar hoe ook alweer, dat ben ik even kwijt.
TTC-KeeleMap-v3.1 on Flickr.
Here’s a map of Keele Station drawn by Christopher Chau, an associate of “Ryan’s TTC Photos”. He will be helping me with these station maps. Now you know what bus routes stop at Keele, and where they go.

Grandma had left her TV on the History Channel and it’s basically a program about American infrastructure. The part we had arrived at was about bridges and roads crumbling.
It’s really sad what has happened to us and even worse is that, to a certain extent, this isn’t 100% this current generation’s fault. Not even the generation before us. The major thing that sucks about infrastructure, at least here in the US, is that it’s all completely based on old bad technology. Sure, it probably was the best back then and it worked for them but unfortunately it just doesn’t work for us anymore. It’s no longer the best technology available to us. It’s no longer good enough for how we use it these days.
A big problem that can be blamed on us though is the tax aspect. People hate taxes. The only problem is is that, to a certain extent, taxes are a “necessary evil” to have a good working civilization.
On the other hand I understand people do get upset about taxes when it is wasted, when it is lost, when it is passing Go and going straight to politician’s pockets. It sucks. I understand but I also understand that in order to see tax dollars at work we need enough taxes to actually be able to afford to fix things. If we don’t have enough to pay for fixing streets we first need money to actually pay for it. Hopefully others also understand this problem.
I’d hate to see what kind of circle we would see when we look intricately at every single problem that leads to one bigger issue. Other things will always show up.
Just a simple brain drain.

Eerdere post over dit project, niet zo goed als deze
My previous post on this project, but not as good as this one, found by:
Mies van der Rohe gas station conversion by Canadian firm Les Architectes FABG. happy 126th birthday, Mies.
De artiest ontdekte de stedenbouwkundige in zichzelf.
Mooi vak, stedenbouwkundige.
Alleen die stad, die werkt nooit echt mee.
“Composited from digital files drawn from aerial views taken from internet satellite images, this work reflects upon the complex structures that make up the centres of global capitalism, transforming the aerial landscapes of sites associated with industries such as oil, precious metals, consumer culture information and excess. Thousands of seemingly insignificant coded pieces of information are sown together like knots in a rug to reveal a grander spectacle.”
