1.Compare the differences between the constructions in your city with them in

20 years ago? Describe the building styles in details?

The traditional buildings are made of the red brick and always have curved

eaves. Thousands of buildings look the same. But now, various buildings with

different colors and styles have been going up in my hometown. In addition, room

is equipped with kitchen and bathroom. This is very convenient.

2.Do you like living in a tall building?

I've lived in a smallish one of eight stories, and I wasn't crazy about it. I

find there's far more social interaction in them than with smaller buildings

because there are so many people sharing a common entrance/exit and using the

same elevators. I personally found the building i was in to be like a small town

with less privacy and more gossipy people than I'd like. For me, I'd consider

the ultimate most desireable form of living to be in a townhouse set in a

solidly urban setting (set very near or on the sidewalk, attached to

neighbouring buildings or seperated by a small alleyway).

However, if given the choice between a highrise or lowrise apartment building

with all things being equal, it's pretty much a draw. Highrises often have

better views, there's more sound isolation from street level noise, and

elevators provide convenience, but as I mentioned, I don't care for the forced

socialisation.

3.What are the advantages of living in tall buildings?

I've lived in smaller highrises (12 and 13 stories, both on the 6th floor)

for several years. Love it.

Density and a central location mean that there's a lot of reasons to go

outside, whether myself or meeting up with other people. Also, the small

businesses know me and what I want.

Quiet is one benefit. I just moved to the alley side of a new building, with

another residential across the way (I can see barely over it, with a little

slice of Elliott Bay and West Seattle). The street noise (alarms, stereos, bar

crowds) I despised at my other place is 80% gone, and my annoyance and related

sleep problems are 99% gone.

I'm sure I'll be on a "how's it going" basis with a few neighbors in time, as

I was at my last place. But I love anonymity. The idea of living in a house

seems wierd. In a house or townhouse, you have a fringe of space that's yours,

but out in the open. I don't want to hang out on display to others, or to be

responsible for maintaining an area I don't feel comfortable in.

4. What are the disadvantages of living in tall buildings

There are several disadvantages to living in a high rise apartment

Evacuation Concerns

If you live in a high rise apartment, you’ll face a harder challenge trying

to evacuate due to emergencies, such a natural disaster or fire.

Limited Gardening

Your options for gardening are very few in a high rise apartment, and in some

cases, you have none.

Noise Nuisance

With that many people living together in a building, you’re bound to have a

noise nuisance from neighbors directly under, above or next to you. Tenants

usually complain about loud music or dog barking in high rise apartments.
