City Giant


Again I bring you the image of my city development. The apartment (big building in the photograph) rise in the middle of common house groups. It looks like a Giant compare to surroundings. For certain people to look at this image say that it is a common thing. But I think for Bandung my city it is rather unusual because the city from my opinion suited being called as modern village or small modern city rather than using metropolitan city element (the apartment). Because it used to be a village a long time ago, placed in higher land (approx. 709 meters from sea surface) and surrounded by mountains. But the local government seems to be changing the goal of city development don’t they? Following the modernization? Globalization?
