It’s impossible to build beautiful when houses are crammed into every inch of space. I utterly lament any modern housing estate where the houses have a foot wide garden at the front that leads straight onto the pavements. Let alone the ghoulish postage stamp back gardens with no privacy.
Space is needed for beauty. A tree needs space to grow. The closest we seem to get now is the sustainable urban drainage system (suds). As suds are a green area with a path built around them.
I literally don’t want to move from where I am as the estate was built with passageways between the streets, with large breaks of green space between blocks of housing and mature trees to boot.

The little green spaces around my estate have been slowly disappearing, having claustrophobic little houses crammed onto them, it’s depressing.
I honestly don’t like kids, but the neighbourhood kids used to be able to just faff around on the green spaces here close to home. Now those spaces sport a handful of bungalows and the kids have nowhere to pass the time.
Seriously, people keep lamenting that their kids aren’t going outside to play or loitering where they are a nuisance, but there’s no fucking space for them any more. Where do you want them to go? The road?

Being a kid nowadays must really suck.
We are not helping ourselves by building detached or semis. Look at (good) victoria terraces.
So you want to bring in unlimited migrants and not build high density housing? Good luck with that bruv.
