Jerusalem stone

I decided that my discussions would be on sentences that I read and aroused something in me, I wonder what you think about the following sentence:
"Because of this Jerusalem stone, there is not even one new house in this city, and every house in Jerusalem is an old house even before they finish building it."
I live in Jerusalem from the day I was born, I hardly ever saw new urban textures, and I love this "old". And perhaps there is sentimental value to stone, but does industrial progress make the house more modern or remains old and non-renewable

Jerusalem has its beauty, you are really invited, chrysalis embrace its residents and visitors

Welcome to myLot. I love old stone houses and 'old' areas too. Of course, in Australia, hardly anything qualifies as 'old' - not when compared to Jerusalem.

@shiriyishay I am sorry if you don't understand. Australia was only settled in 1788 so our old buildings are not really very old. The buildings in your city would be much, much older.

The truth is that I saw the discussions that started here, it's more of a poetic discussion, and it really interests me to know what other people from around the world think. Beyond money, it's a great place to discover things I might not have known and this is the place to get out of our bubble to a better cultural place :)
