We’ve heard about car brain, this is its cousin, detached house brain.
Tall, wide, building, scary!! OoooOoOooOoOoh
Any apartment building that size should have a couple floors of retail, especially food - they would make a fortune. If I lived there I would illegally sell teriyaki or something out of my apartment. Better still, run it like a street drug business - pay cooks and delivery people, and have distributors in between - they alone know where the kitchens are. Eventually it’s the chicken fingers episode of Community.
I found some apartments in that building advertised on some random website for immigrants and those don’t look half bad.
For your consideration;

The lack of quality would be hilarious if if wasn’t so fucking dangerous for people.
Probably has its own Pizza Hut. Delivery guys don’t need cars.
So this is what Cyberpunk 2077 based its apartment complexes on
There’s a good chance that apartment building has easy to find organized unit numbers that pizza delivery guy can understand. Building may even have multiple front entrances each with distinct addresses.
The pizza guy very likely lives in the building too.
Pizza Hut makes a deal with the government to put all the pepperoni customers on the same floors, veggie people on other floors, etc. The lava cake freaks… there’s a special floor for them.
Once saw a (German) documentary about this building. They have drop-off places on the ground floor where delivery drivers leave their goods in locked boxes. Payment and and locking/unlocking of the box is done digitally through phone.
P.S.: This one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PgVXPEORuA0
The luxury floors should have automated dumbwaiters, so there’s a little rectangle in the wall that’s basically a primitive replicator. Trash leaves through the same chute.
Yeah, I’ve delivered pizza in a city of over 100k people. The whole idea of an address is to figure out where the destination is down to the personal residence. Doesn’t matter if the people are spread out in a single building or many buildings.
I didn’t go knocking on every door any time someone ordered pizza to an apartment. Biggest concern about apartments were if they had a buzzer, if that buzzer worked, and if the code matched the unit number or would be easy to figure out based on the information provided. And if it wasn’t, their phone number was part of the information provided.
You are all absolutely smothering the joke, lol
This wouldn’t be necessary if everyone used the proper peer review process before publishing their jokes!!
Most of them with no window.
Am I the only one who worries first about trash collection day than pizza delivery (wildly unpopular in China btw)?
I’d assume the building has a trash collection chute. My old apartment building had one.
I think they have collection centres (within the building), chutes were more of an American thing (“don’t think about the trash” mentality).
Definitely not just an American thing.
And if they don’t, I’m sure that they’d have pickup schedules like any town would.
I imagine with that many people there are restaurants and services within.
Can’t imagine the wait times for elevators at whatever the start/end of normal working hours must be.
I am the pizza delivery boy.
Unfortunately he is tied up at Peach Trees, trying to deliver justice to Ma-Ma.
That’s way more than the population of the whole town I live in.
Why do such monolithic buildings give me such hell-on-earth vibes?
Because that’s exactly what we’ve created.
It’s a matter of perspective and use — high density one place means you can have open space somewhere else, for a given amount of land.
I’d much prefer a few large dense housing complexes, surrounded by green space, than suburban sprawl.
I’d also prefer something denser than suburban sprawl, but I think there’s a balance point between that and what the post is showing.
I think that 3-5 story apartments with shops underneath are the best ones, because they aren’t too dense while also not wasting space.
Make those with decent construction so every cough and sneeze isn’t broadcasted to all of your neighbors with good design so it’s disability friendly, and that is the dream right there.
Yeah, love me a elevator. Especially as a delivery driver (rider?).
Until your neighbor starts up with the gimp suit and webcam show again…
Probably not that man for the food deliverer. High density implies having more than 1 order and there are likely many entrances and building numbers.
I would be surprised if there weren’t several shops dedicated to the building.
Probably a whole mall on the lower floors and vending machines amd shid
Right? I’m mass texting my deliveries “hey I’m out front with about 12 other orders. If you need it delivered to your door here it’ll be a few extra minutes. I’ll head into the building to complete any remaining deliveries at [time]”
This might be better than most apartments I’ve lived in tbh, so it might work if looking out of the window and having the inescapable trap of modern life hit you in the face isn’t a deal breaker for you
For a moment I thought the washing machine was outside on the balcony in picture 6!
It all looks so short, like are the ceilings really low or is the camera just being held by a giant?
That third picture is either warped or the structural soundness of the building is questionable.
I think the balcony edge curves out into the room. The second pic from the loft bedroom kinda/sorta looks like it. Looks like crap with that straight railing though.
Is that a refrigerator in the living room, and a tv over the stove?
It’s called an open floor plan.

I saw the same thing. That’s almost 20 people per unit.
