The museum is not pro-neoliberalism, though in that light if it does succeed in finding a new location it seems like a guarantee that this news article will become an exhibit in it
A new apartment building is going up in the middle of my small town. It’s “luxury” apartments.
Big black “stylish” (see also: identical to every other luxury apartment building in the last 5 years) building on top of a hill in the middle of a low-cost and simple rural community. It’s so ridiculous. It stands out horribly, and looks terrible. And it’s right next to a gas station.. so it looks even more ridiculous. I doubt they will get a lot of renters for it.
About a decade back there was a push to build luxury apartments in the town over. They built them all (few hundred units) right next to the landfill. I’ve driven past said landfill in summer and nearly throw up. I can’t imagine living next to that, and calling my place luxury..
that people would construct and buy luxury apartments, when you could instead spend that money on building luxury lower density housing that rich people actually want.
Rich people generally want to show off their wealth, which isn't very easy with apartments. They also tend to want lots of space, which of course is also difficult with apartments.
Rich people live in mansions, not fucking apartments.
The only thing that would be more fitting is Thatcher's grave catching on fire because of reduced safety standards, and no one's able to put it out because they ran out of piss
