I can only assume that by “dream collection” they are talking about the act of collecting your hopes and dreams to smash them up and turn them into shareholder value

The American Dream is to draw a line in the dirt and glare at your neighbors from behind it.
Lots of wasted space here, I bet you could have minimized on cost and maximized on ROI by just building a couple of multifamily buildings instead. I would have thought there might be zoning issues causing these structures to be built, but after a few minutes of research, that area has “no zoning” and thus has no specific regulations it needs to abide by. What a weird “choice” to make here. You have to sell the American Fantasy of “homeownership” at any cost, right?
Trying to sell people this:
when it’s actually this:
I just want to say I appreciate the effor that went into the photoshop here for a one off
haha thanks, I needed to kill time at work today.
What if we built combloc sadness housing, but we spread all the blocks around like Legos on the floors of god’s living room so they had none of the advantages of apartment blocks and also made them cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, and also isolated them in the burbs.
they look like two story shotgun houses.
amazing how far we’ve come to build less sturdy versions of substandard worker housing from the Deep South 100-150 years ago.
reminds of the ironic brag “We are tomorrow’s people.”
Watching the shotgun house get gentrified right in front of me, in my own city, has been crazy to watch. Ridiculous what people will pay for
couldn’t even paint them cool colors, how depressing.
If your trying to save space why not make them town homes??? Why does it look like they tossed them around randomly on the lot??? Why are they in a white void of nothingness??? Why are all the doors and windows open when it looks so humid??? This place looks abandoned.
Why are there so few windows and why are they so small? It wouldn’t be terrible housing if there was greenery, few cafes and shops around and the whole thing was more lively but that won’t fly with American zoning laws.
christ this is bleak. you bulldozed the thornscrub for this? couldn’t even make them singlestory?
In a vague way it reminds of the ticky-tacky houses in the song Little Boxes
A huge difference is that the ticky-tacky houses were bland and generic but nice. Those depressing gray houses look like they belong in Japanese internment camp - to steal a joke from this thread.
If only Texas had a ton of fucking unused land that you could put normal sized houses on and let people live in fucking dignity…
Tbf “nightmare” is also a type of dream.
Some of these don’t have garages, which is kinda wild for something that’s at the very high end of car dependency.
death to america btw
guess it depends which part of texas. It’s not like they’re getting a lot of snow and ice down there but I suppose sun is a big factor in much of the state. imagine it with an $80 harbor freight carport next to it, seeing as thats probably how they’ll end up
OP said it’s San Antonio and that’s far south enough that there’s barely going to be any snow at all
Going from the pictures it was constructed in gm_flat so I guess you just leave your car in the endless field surrounding your townhouse with the worse heating bill
Any idea how much they’re going for?
Okay those houses look like shit, but I will point out that the ground being all torn up and piles of construction debris being everywhere is pretty normal for mid-development complexes.
Clearing the waste and doing landscaping will transform it from a mid-development complex to a mid development complex.
