That's the problem with current architects and interior designers, glorifying luxury as a "magical fairy land" where everyone should want to live in instead of designing more for practicality and reality. Not everyone cause afford or want to stay at a hotel like that, making it less accessible to the everyday person and essentially stressing and widening the gap between social classes.

what a shitty looking part of my town. fuck this upscale shit, this makes me want to start my own tour of Boston: take the tourists to eggs, Middle East, taggers ally, hit up the nuts vendors in Copley, Yawkey, walk down Huntington, blow past where the Rath and the Axis used to be, the Dise, circle back to Dewey sq., and end at the fountain where the junkies shoot heroin in the Common.
