I can think of a hell of a lot more important indicators of
REAL development. so if the govt spend all the money on free education, where will revenue come from to fund healthcare? or even continue the free education program  we can always borrow more money from the IMF right? well in the city that i live in, we invested money in building infrastructure and inviting coperate businesses to come build their skyscrapers and headquarters with us. our city have grown rapidly since the past decade now, the mayor is now tackling public education. i think there's a reason why he didn't go for education first. i don't know the reason though. do you?  oh well it's all complicated politics. |

Ahh my love for architecture is indescribable, I have even started desgining my own buildings
* People just jump to conclusions without properly researching everything
* The new high rises that are been proposed by Asian firms, will be used to house average people
* Highrise apartments are more affordable than regular lowrise structures
* They don't require as much land
* It beautifies the environment, and makes it a place worth visiting, thus enhancing the areas local economy and pours money, really!!
* These structures are mostly funded by private companies, and are in the best interests of the average Nigerian.
Why not appreciate something if it looks good, I wasn't born to complain and dwell in place shouded with negativety.
Highrises are a way of celebrating humanity, and If you can't see te good in them, then you obviously don't like life and in that case you need therapy

I hope my question didn't offend you this much ok. when you're done designing your own buildings, put the pics up. I'm sure they'll be awesome |

* The new high rises that are been proposed by Asian firms, will be used to house average people what does average people mean? * Highrise apartments are more affordable than regular lowrise structures true but they require constant maintainance and that dont go well with nigeria. * They don't require as much land true but they take up too much airland  you want to see beautiful skies dont you * It beautifies the environment, and makes it a place worth visiting, thus enhancing the areas local economy and pours money, really!! they can be an eyesore * These structures are mostly funded by private companies, and are in the best interests of the average Nigerian. you think so? are you being spoon fed? dblock are you encouraged to challenge your teachers at all? |

I don't get you, but what do you mean by it's not suited to Nigeria, that's just degenerate bull. They are as suitable in Naija as they are in Gotham city. The comapnies that will build these buildings are experienced firms that will surely look after their own buildings, DUH!!!!! dblock are you encouraged to challenge your teachers at all? I don't challenge my teachers in authing, because you shouldn't make a statement or ask a question if it won't benefit you in anyway. ok. when you're done designing your own buildings, put the pics up.
I'm sure they'll be awesome I will, I've finished my first building but I still have to put in the finishing tourches, I'll post them here and then take them down, cos I don't wanna make a thread just for them  |

This Pic was taken 2005  There are great plans for Lagos, The CBD will have all the major roads refilled or completely rebuilt, the abandoned buildings will be turned into entertainment centres and the whole scenery will be beautified Lagos isn't going to loose it's title as "Nigeria's Financial Capital" anytime soon |

do you have any proove to your claims? 'cause sometimes they really sound outlandish. the 2005 pic looks like those buildings are in serious need of furnishing/ maintainance work. they look really dull and decaying with the exception of the tallest one and the one on the far right, and the two small ones in the center. Good job anyways, Mr Architect Dblock  |
