Real Estate developers may not be the most altruistic individuals on earth, but they do enable actual construction to occur. The free market has always enabled the dreamers of the world to find a similarly inclined patron with the right connections, and deep pockets, that make the rapid transformation of any landscape possible.
I’m all for socially responsible architecture and urban planning, but I’m morbidly curious about the role of architects in a post-capitalist society. Grandiose plans without a reality check lead to Brasilia-scale conundrums. Functional human-scale development should be the focus of any modern-era archi-planner.
I’m totally going to pull a Garrett here. This episode was too good not to immediately capture for posterity.
I apologize for the crude iPhone shots in advance.
