You know, I am not so sure if I agree? I went to Tokyo in the Autumn and I loved it! But I was a little underwhelmed with the infrastructure and housing. (Maybe because the expectation was so high) The underground was well organised, but not noticeably better than London for example. It all looked a little outdated imo. It also shut really early, so It was always a huge scramble to catch the last train. Night buses aren't really a thing either, meaning you were stuck.. It was quite walkable, but I would say most European Cities are more pedestrian and bicycle friendly.. And finally the housing is all so small. Tiny windows and low ceilings. The architecture for the most part is quite dull, rectangular and grey.. It is definitely a well-organised and super interesting place to visit! But I think the infrastructure of Tokyo is overrated a little in my opinion. Again just my first impressions and opinion from a short trip. I'm sure I could be wrong.

Afterall its a big deal to run a city of this scale and population with this much efficiency. Thats all 😊

In regards to Paris, one place that is definitely seeing a lot of investment ahead of the Olympics however is the public transit. Especially the city's brand new Metro line, Line 15, a ring line, part of the "Grand Paris Express" project, which is specifically planned to link Olympic sites, while also serving as a brand new ring line railway around central Paris, helping to make suburb to suburb trips easier and relieving the existing Metro and RER lines in the city centre

What's proposed at Washington Union is a total revamp. Aside from the historic main hall and terminal, the rest of the station is going to be essentially brand new. Improvements include multiple new access points, dedicated pickup/drop off areas, a bus terminal, multiple new concourses, and modernized and widened platforms. The renderings look amazing with train platforms running visibly on the level above the main concourse. While the improvements at GCS and Penn are definitely welcomed and needed, the breadth and scope of what's proposed at WUS is just so extensive.

And also: do we really want the world to be like this?

@@RevoBong that first question is Nonsensical, the fact that there's already lots of tourists is one of the main reason why the project go ahead. The region's potential growth and development is hampered by the fact that the road systems could only handle so much and the government want to make it easier to get around, once that's achieved further growth and development would be possible now that there's two modes of transport in the region instead of one and that's really the ultimate goal not strange at all for a tourist attraction region. The other two questions is a bit more complex so I'd suggest you just watch the B1M's video about it.

Something tells me that the Vegas Grand Prix could prove problematic with the locals. Montreal experienced something like that with the electric formula race being held right in the center of downtown instead of at the race track a few kilometers away. Montreal has a metro system which makes it a lot easier to move around. Vegas does not have that, so without those streets, the problems that Vegas experiences will be far worse.

The worst thing about your comment is that you are probably proud of your provocation. I am neither trans nor vegan. I am, however, deeply concerned about the current trends of climate change (so should you by the way) and I believe it would be much more interesting to go in depths about infrastructure projects rather than cheerfully and enthousiastically scratching the surface with no critical thinking. At some point we will have to change the way we construct buildings and infrastructures. Some type of buildings will have to be modified, others will simply be abandonned. This shift is already a key part of engineering. I believe that channels like B1M should encourage and raise awareness about this rather than advertise despendable projects that are frankly harmful for the environment. So yeah, I pretty much think that these "trans vegans" concerns should be talked about, especially on videos about this topic. You should stop opposing ecological concerns and infrastructure projects.

Really enjoyed the video. I especially like the subtle humor! Well done!

Another project that's not as big but just as impactful as these mentioned is Montreal's new light rail REM system! After 5 years of prep and construction, the west half will be finished this year and also led to the construction of the Samuel Champlain bridge, an elegant suspended one that gives incoming travellers a perfect view of the Montreal Skyline which is getting two new towers this year as well! Thought this was worth a mention!

A nitpick: the "main tower" of Azabudai Hills' Japanese name is メインタワー (transliteration of English words "main tower") indeed, but it's not "主塔" as shown in the video. "塔", while does mean "tower" in Japanese (and Chinese), it's mostly reserved for its original/narrower meaning: for structures like Eiffel Tower or Tokyo Tower, or traditional Asian tower a.k.a. pagodas. "Tall buildings" usually aren't referred as 塔. タワー and 塔 are not interchangeable. If you ask Japanese people, they probably have no idea what "主塔" is in this context. I get it the author used "主塔", the kanji, for stylish reasons, but you can't randomly translate katakana loan words to kanji like that.
