[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is interesting how universities end up demolishing or refacing buildings built in the 1960s and 70s, but tend to keep older buildings.[/quote] Cause in the 60s and 70s there was a population boom and a lot of stuff was built to be done quickly rather than look good. They also had strange design decisions like motel style access and were a lot smaller than typical dorms. Doesn't make sense to try and renovate a building with no character. The older buildings define the university. [/quote] That and the modern architecture that was in vogue at the time didn't age well. (At least the designs of many average architects.) [/quote]
