In a new post about Reddit, people talk about luxury houses (and not in a good way).
“Abandoned luxury houses that were never finished,” wrote the Redditor in the post about the R/abandoned subreddit, which shows a photo of three groups of town houses in a state of expiry.
Some inner walls are exposed to visible wooden panels, and there are no signs of trying to design landscape. It looks like building one day was only stopped and nobody ever came back.
The contribution, which is not the first on this topic, blew up with more than 3,000 upvotes and almost 100 comments. People are not only surprised; They are frustrated. These houses are likely to cost a fortune to start building, using raw materials, energy and work. And now all of this is sitting there, wasted.
Abandoned houses can affect the surrounding community. They put on pests and can even become a danger. And all the materials used? They had no costs, not only financially, but also in relation to the environmental impact.
This conversation takes place at a time when more people think about sustainable development and affordable apartments. Instead of starting big projects and leaving them half made, developers are interested in repairing buildings that are already available. The conversion of old or empty buildings into houses or common rooms is often cheaper, less wasteful and better for the environment.

The response to the post was, to put it with the least, strong. A commentator said what many thought: “Such a waste of resources.”
Another focused on the role of poor planning under these circumstances: “In view [that] I'm surprised.”
These abandoned houses could have been useful, but (at least for the time being) they only serve as a way to show us how important it is to build up smarter and plan better – for people, for communities and for the planet.
