I do like the architectural diversity in the Loop, but it goes beyond just downtown. One of the things that I love about my neighborhood is how you'll find 2, 3, or 4 floor walkups built anywhere from 100 to 1 year ago right next to each other. Some of the modern architecture from the 60s and 70s doesn't look great in isolation and I wouldn't want an entire street of it, but when its sandwiched between a building built in 1920 and one built in the last few years it gives the neighborhood a lot of character.
