CONSOOM the Architecture of the Past, and Our Future

The "Tartarian" nonsense stems from people losing their roots and connection to the world. It is also due to the collapse in manufacturing in the US and the population being disconnected from how things are made. There is no "testimony" needed to hint that Chicago had early skyscrapers in the late 1800's. It's a common historical fact. The first steel frame high-rises went up in the mid 1880's. Chicago was a major industrial hub. You see China building cities at a rapid pace today? We used to do that, before bureaucratization neutered our society and finacialization hollowed it out.
