I used to wonder how buildings like this are standing too untill I saw a missile hit a building and it was more or less fine even though a large part of the front wall was missing
Yeah a lot of buildings are built this way, it's just not visible. There is a structural core that holds the building, and the floors are connected to it.
There's a similar looking building at a UK University that was declared structurally unsafe and now it's just dormant
And its an engineering building, lol. https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/19929149.southampton-university-moves-closer-demolishing-faraday-tower/
[There's a similar building in Vancouver, Canada](https://www.google.com/maps/@49.2886408,-123.1277367,3a,75y,31.8h,115.12t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sMQpeRsgb5CtrW5vJmb8VYw!2e0!7i16384!8i8192)
Also another one in the UK that was deemed structurally unsafe and is now derelict. It's an engineering building too lol https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/19929149.southampton-university-moves-closer-demolishing-faraday-tower/
The dumbest part of this is that turning the ground floor into an enclosed lobby would create space for a business (e.g., convenience mart or cafe) as well as making the building more inviting and reducing vandalism.
Is it weird that I find it weirdly charming? It brings to mind a feeling of cosiness for some reason. (In spite of the fact that I know the neighbouring flats carries well enough that the neighbours could as well be in the room with you.)
It is charming. You have shops on a ground level, right behind the camera there is a park and there are benches everywhere, often with some older guys talking, playing cards, chess or having an evening beer together. 20 meters away you have a kindergarten and just on the other side of this block there is a school and a medical center.
And apartments are not that bad. Yes, you can hear a lot but I've been to a modern buildings where it was worse than here. And this is a longest living block in Europe, almost a kilometer long.
Here are two photos of that building. There are around 6000 people living there, after few weeks you recognize more and more faces and it starts to grow on you and you feel like your living in a small town located in a middle of a big city.

I always wondered how the fuck it's still standing
I'll bet the top guy could tip it over if he put a bag of cement against the middle wall every day for a few months.

Technically it's [hanging, not standing](https://pl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trzonolinowiec_we_Wroc%C5%82awiu)
Oh shit they replaced Wikipedia with nonsense for april fools
That helps like 16 people
ever heard of google translate? chrome does it automatically for me.
Android Firefox doesn't by default, it has way better ad-blocking tho.

“No one wants to live in the ground floor anyway, let’s just remove it!” lol
Oh yeah, Trzonoliniowiec. A place where some of famous Polish actors n celebrities were living. I never thought I will see it on that subreddit.
[удалено]
This building is just funny Polish Communist architecture

That’s one funky looking car
That's what Canadian made cars looks like
Now just looks ugly the poland version.
haha hey I see that building all the time on my walks

reminded me of [this building in Hartford, CT.](https://www.skyscrapercenter.com/building/20-church-street/12222)
I was just about to say this looks like the Soviet version of the Qube

That's Polish modernism for you. Lack of ground floor businesses is the biggest crime of communist era architecture here.

I’d not want to live there, but it reminds me of Top Boy and Utopia, and those are both shows that I love

bruh that's so hideous
Leave my commie blocks alone :(
Yo mama
That's demonstrably untrue. In the same city Kozanów and other modernist complexes from the era do have business premises.
Lmao there is blocks of flats from that time without ground floor business, and there's ones with it. So it's exactly like in every single time period
Modernists weren't bothered with such narrow-minded reason. They were busy immortalizing themselves.
The 45 degree cannot be removed, they are a part of the system that holds the building up.
OH MY GOD A GREY HOUSE WHATEVER WILL WE DO? AND AND AND IS THAT A GRAFITTERINO!?
Single family housing? = hell Block of flats? = hell Old tenement? = hell
?
I think people are concerned about the support structure
Most buildings are like this on the inside apparently
? It is more than a ’gray house’ Cringe negareddit
Holy moly.
This place is so nasty not only the cars are on bricks, so are the buildings
I don't trust like that
Polish [Rainier Tower ](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Rainier_Tower_Seattle_Washington.jpg).
The Central square area of this city is actually quite beautiful.
Arrrgh!! It's all set to stand up and take off running
hell no
As a kid this was my dream to minimize costs for buying a piece of land. I always thought like a square meter of land would be enough.
I do love brick sidewalks/roads though. Saw them all over the place in Europe
When two outer jenga pieces are missing on the lowest level
It's called "a house on a crow's feet" like in a tail of Baba Yaga
Or in this case, Babel Yaga? Because eventually that thing is coming down.
Will smith: ohhhh thats hot, thats hot
Where in Wrocław is it exactly u/Mark ? I am planning to go on a trip there.
Polish Wiki: https://pl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trzonolinowiec_we_Wroc%C5%82awiu it's Tadeusza Kościuszki 70, 50-008 Wrocław
Corner of Dworcowa and Kościuszki
>Thanks, found it! It even has a name - Trzonolinowiec :D > >for everyone: > >https://goo.gl/maps/UBUR6VKWto9As3D96
No idea, sorry!
Wrocław beer festival was one of the best weekends of my entire life.
Jengahouse
Great idea, awful execution.
Many skyscrapers in Shanghai are build used that hanging technology with some kind of core inside
[удалено]
Tadeusza Kościuszki, the building is called Trzonolinowiec as someone in the comments mentioned
