Guys ! Guy! Hold it there. Are you all sure that this thread won't turn to be a place where nemesis will be spewing vitriol and all sorts of acrimonious sentiments. Mimi nitakuwa napitia pembeni kushabikia tu.

Hongereni wakina nyangau mkenya, tuacheni sisi watanzania bado tunapiga siasa kwenye maisha yetu badala ya kufanya-development ya nchi tumekalia majungu, umbea na uongo. Rasilimali tulizona nazo ni tofauti na maendeleo ya nchi.

I feel sorry for my country:embarrassed1:

The Nairobi city building code is probly the strickest in the region.
Our other urban centres are also well planned.
Yes, the regulations were inherited from the colonialists and they havent been abandoned following their exit.

Mr. Jomo Kenyatta himself was obsessed with the concept of proper urban planning, having spent years decades in abroad.
His administration initiated such well planned mid-class residential areas as Buruburu,Umoja,Donholm,Tena,Langata,South B and C, Nairobi South,Thome, Madaraka etc.

The business Districts of Westlands,Upper Hill,Much of Hurlingham and Parklands have been built by the African administration, not the colonialists.

Now, compare these pictures of Nairobi in the 60s and today...

its time we had such a thread in jamii as our fellow tanzanians (in this forum) seem to think that kenya is slowing down, the guys even get to the point of insults.... lets show em our best so that they can calm down

Looks like Dar Es Salaam at 1990's

Dar yanikumbusha sana Mombasa. I guess ni vle iko Pwani pia lkn yafanana kidogo na Mombasa.

those dark edition photoes are poetic! and then those pedestrians summarize what life in Nairobi is about (from the lovers in the middle of the streets at night without a care to the young lad with a skate board, to the hustler walking in the open without an umbrella when its rainin.....

the guy who took these photos must be an artist, I mean these photos deserve to be in an art gallery!

HAIYAA!!! yaani umesoma hayo yote kwa kuangalia picha? I love u already. Mie najiangalilia tu bila kuchambua picha yeyote lkn ukinipa hesabu ntakuchambulia :rockon::rockon: weweee!!

Nairobi Central Business District maeneo ya Uhuru Highway, Haille Selasse Avenue, Moi Avenue na University Way pamoja na maeneo ya City Hall and Parliament Building eneo lote hilo la mjini-kati a.ka city centre ni kazi-ya- mipango- miji ya urithi toka kwa utawala wa mkoloni.

Maeneo ambayo yamejengwa kwa kufuata mipango miji ya mkenya-mzalendo baada ya uhuru wa Kenya hawataki kabisa kuonesha picha zake kutokana na ujenzi holela wa majumba chini ya kiwango na miundo mbinu (miundo msingi) mibovu.

LOL i guess pia wakoloni walijenga the new business districts of upper hill and westlands
