Why do you like sad looking buildings ?
XD Idk if concrete is sad, it just exists. sometimes exhilarating, or hulking or unobtrusive. I like to think that although it cures into a solid, it maintains a fluidity reflective of the environment it finds itself in. Whether that means scaling, stains, or any of the countless variations of aging

Moving on
Tumblr media
Hi folks! Just want to say thanks to everyone who hearted/reblogged/commented/followed the posts here on Brutal Boston! There were a lot of new names & many familiar ones as well. Though I have many more images, I feel I’ve reached as good a stopping point & it’s time to move on to something else.
Thanks in no particular order to: @scavengedluxury @paulrosenstein @architectureofdoom @dremecreme @neito @fishmech @cement-light @germanpostwarmodern

It’s telling when a building in the Brutalist style has has one of its sides painted with a mural featuring classical architecture.
