Probably fire spot for parkour and skating now

this">https://twitter.com/Trad_West... is somewhat correct, you shouldn& #39;t build places around practicability only, but pretentious neoclassical trash wouldn& #39;t save modern cities either, even though they like to pretend it would

more often than not, neoclassical buildings are nothing but a facade that fails to capture what it& #39;s actually supposed to be like, also why isn& #39;t this colored like the Greeks would have
