Скачать или смотреть Why Europe Is Not Building Skyscrapers

Why doesn’t Europe build skyscrapers like Dubai, Shanghai, or New York? While Asia and the Middle East reach for the clouds, Europe’s skyline remains curiously low. In this video, we dive deep into the surprising mix of engineering, history, soil science, politics, and public sentiment that keeps Europe's tallest buildings grounded.

We’ll explore:

Why ancient clay and soft soils make construction difficult
How strict height laws protect historic landmarks like the Parthenon and St. Peter’s Basilica
The legacy of "Brusselization" and how it transformed urban policy
Complex fire safety rules that make even mid-rises expensive
The logistical nightmare of building in narrow, centuries-old cities
Why Europeans often choose not to build tall—even when they can

From London’s clay to Berlin’s sand, and Paris’s view ordinances to Athens’s Parthenon protections, this is the story of why the continent that shaped modern civilization never embraced the modern skyscraper.
