Why do such monolithic buildings give me such hell-on-earth vibes?

Arcolgies can be a cool idea though if done right. Granted it hasn’t been done given the amount of resources, planning, logistics, etc required. Still, cool idea.

It’s a matter of perspective and use — high density one place means you can have open space somewhere else, for a given amount of land.
I’d much prefer a few large dense housing complexes, surrounded by green space, than suburban sprawl.

I’d also prefer something denser than suburban sprawl, but I think there’s a balance point between that and what the post is showing.
I think that 3-5 story apartments with shops underneath are the best ones, because they aren’t too dense while also not wasting space.
