Japanese Housing

Wherever I go I'll see battered houses especially here in my new place Evansville, Indiana seeing as it's a small city. But if you go out to the rural areas that's where you find the old houses that aren't either broken or abandon. ^^;

There are quite a few around here...but they seem to be knocking them down and replacing them with highrises at an enormous pace...so much that there is a surplus of houses at the moment

I've only seen battered up houses in the rural philippines. Especially when I went to Boracay- which was still damaged by the tsunamis back them. A nice mixture of high-class hotels, Resorts and messed up civilian houses ^.^

Japan has some pretty crazy looking houses from what I've seen (flickr and stuff), pretty inspirational stuff.

Quite a number around my state, but those near growing housing estates are often knocked down to make way for further development. Abandoned ones tend to become home for foreign immigrants and drug junkies.

I have read somewhere that when you buy land for housing in a neighbourhood area, they would include whatever is already built on it for free, including a house. The type of houses may range from a decent one to the battered up houses like the above.

we've got a lot of battered and old houses that dates back to the Spanish Rule (1521-1898) especially around the old manila district.

some old buildings are preserved by the government but some are being used as warehouses and letting it deteriorate.

I often heard this from others that have gone to Japan, regarding old houses (either battered ones or very traditional ones) in the middle of highly urbanised areas.

Here in Dublin the situation is a bit different since the country is only undergoing urbanisation pretty much now, and only for the last 10 years or so with the big economic upturn. However, because of Dublin's nature as a tourist city, the government is extremely opposed to demolishing old buildings, even if these have little to no historical or cultural significance.

Last year I lived in a building in central Dublin (Aungier Street), and my landlord informed me it was one of the oldest buildings in Dublin, probably around 400 years old. Needless to say I hated it, and it got me thinking: this building has literally no history of its own that hasn't been painted over in endless refurbishments. What is the need to keep it???

No, only some old barns.
Usually houses here are pretty decent, about 1-30 years. Except there is pretty dead village 6km to east here that has quite a lot old houses.

They must stand out quite a bit then, being surrounded by modern buildings. Maybe there isn't an old man inside, maybe its head quarters for some intergalactic warriors?

We do get a fair share of old houses here. Nobody really sticks around to find out. Cos we're all quite superstitious. :/

I live out in a small town in a rural area. So we do have plenty of old looking farm houses and the like.

Most of the old houses in Madison are usually just run down slums. the only secret lair in those is probably a crack house or something.

There's a lot of battered houses here in my area. You won't have a hard time finding one. You'll probably find one in each corner. :D High rise buildings are still rare around here.

you might have bumped into me a few times in london Danny. we live like less then 20mins away from each other. Im very close to hackney. Im from Tottenham. we got plenty of council houses as well as councils to run the houses & the occupants just let the house degrade till its litterally about to fall apart if u sneeze on it then call in the council & have them deal with it....

quite a few of the houses here are like that. but not all houses on this street belong to the council. theres about 4-5 houses here that they have housed Ex-Cons & single mothers with 20kids who will happily ram their little trikes into your cars then climb all over it & jump on the bonnet like it was some sorta bouncing castle....

this area use to be very nice....then a few people died or moved away & the council muscled in...

Here in my country, like in most third world countries, much of what you can see is a mix of "battered houses" which belong to the poorer citizens and "ok looking houses" which belong to the middle classes. I rarely see "rich looking houses" because those can only be found in private subdivisions or estates.

Not a lot of run down old homes in NYC but back in Ohio where I'm originally from there are many. Usually they're just abandoned due to some eviction or what have you and then they melt in to the farm land. I like old houses like this...I think they look cool.

This picture reminds me of Yamada Taro Monogatari (by JE). Yamada Taro is this poor guy with 7 siblings and a wanderer-artist father and good-for-nothing mother. but since he was smart, he got a scholarship at a prominent high school. he worked his ass off day and night to support his family. Their house looked like the one in the picture though they were in the middle of the Tokyo! You gotta watch at least an episode to understand what im talking about

buy acident i walked down an alley in london and there was like hundreds of smashed up houses

je je je is my house XD

I live in a suburban section of my town in a neighborhood surrounded by tree's and a forest. Directly behind my duplex there's a 90+ year old abandoned shot gun shack that has been vacant for atleast 10 years. A block away sits an old two story house that I estimate to be 120 years old that is completely engulfed in kudzu and other vines and tree growth thats only visible during the winter months. A half mile up the street off in the woods is another house a single story ranch style that is around 40 yrs old and has been empty for 10+ years. Another quarter mile past that and in city limits is a neighborhood that has a mix of abandoned homes and run down lived in homes and new homes that are being built in an attempt to revitalize the area. It's pretty common to find these homes all throughout the south and in the appalachian mountain range from northern Georgia all the way up into Pennsylvania.

As long as I had internet I would live in that house

This is the best DIY house I have ever seen

Maybe public works ain't dealin' on it.
But is that ain't demolished before the next electoral year, Aso's OUTTA HERE!!!!!!!!!!!

HACKney, KIL-BURN = why do all the dodgy places in London have dodgy names?

Oh wow.
