  1. Unfortunately that’s a common thing among Polish buildings

  2. Think I’ve seen something similar in Vienna (the “before WWII”, obviously).

  3. Imho it actually looks better now.

    I ain’t a fan of form over content shown above

  4. I used to build more complex and better constructions with my Lego set.

  5. It wasn’t reconstruction. They’ve just built a new building in the same place.

  6. They should have built it in the style it was before, the new version is ugly

  7. Cóż, lepsze to niż żelbetonowy kloc… 😶

  9. they could still make similar buildings to these to enlarge the area of ​​this type of development

  10. Wait until you see the surroundigns. Disaster.

  11. While I agree that pre-war looked way better, nowadays it wouldn’t be possible. Before war this Philharmonic was connected with neighbouring ones and now it is and independent building because well there are no neighbouring buildings to connect it to (at least buildings styled for the prewar look). Also, it is much bigger now and inside it seriously looks amazing
