Мне нравится облицовка американских здании, как на фото. Не то что наши астанинсткие. Также стекло как то сбалансировано другими материалами, как на фотке в #108 посте. Сплошное остекление уже раздражает.

Behind those beautiful pictures hide monstrous road traffics. Here is an article about it:

Drivers in the Chicago and Washington, D.C., metro areas spend the most time stuck in traffic, according to an annual analysis of the nation’s traffic trends.

Commuters in those two cities spent an average of 70 hours stuck in traffic in 2009, according to the 2010 Urban Mobility Report, published by the Texas Transportation Institute at Texas A&M University.

Southern California – the Los Angeles, Long Beach and Santa Ana metro area – was third with an average of 63 hours spent stuck in traffic.

Chicago commuters lost the most money to the delays, $1,738, according to the survey, while D.C. commuters wasted the most gas, 57 gallons each.

The top 10 cities for traffic delays in 2009:

1st - (tie) Chicago, Washington, D.C. – 70 hours
3rd - Southern California – 63 hours
4th - Houston – 58 hours
5th - San Francisco-Oakland – 49 hours
6th - (tie) Dallas-Fort Worth, Boston – 48 hours
8th - Atlanta, Seattle – 44 hours
10th - New York- Newark – 42 hours

Here in Chicago a public opinion takes a strong position when it comes to city's architecture. After all, cities are build for people and with people's opinion considered

Я конечно понимаю что люди там не живут, но ведь они там работают, а значит туда (в финансовый центр) как то добираются... будь то метро или авто...

Hi CEVEP,

Why isn’t there traffic downtown of Chicago? I think the mainly because of some double-decked and a few triple-decked streets. The most famous and longest of theses is Wacker Drive. they take most of the loads from the Streets

Here is a pic from the web: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...C_3_levels.jpg
