Pre-war architecture

Pre-war architecture refers to buildings built in the period between the turn of the 20th century until the Second World War.[1] Many mid- and high-rise apartment buildings which were built after 1900 and before 1940[2] in New York and surrounding areas are considered "pre-war" and known for their spaciousness, hardwood flooring, detailing, and, in some cases, fireplaces. Quite often they are luxury rentals or co-op apartments.[3][4][5][6]

gollark: Imagine some hypothetical AI (actually not that hypothetical, they basically all work this way outside of training) which can think about and model itself.
gollark: There are weird visual quirks like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McCollough_effect which persist for a while.
