Xennial here too ;)
I'm right there with you, for the most part.
But like you said what survives of the past is the cream of the crop, and not sustainable to build at the incredible scale we need to get out of this crisis we find ourselves in.
I lived all my life in century old buildings, most of them sucked one way or another. I live in a half century old building now, it's better, but clearly nowhere near modern standards. And even if I tried to bring it to modern standards, it will never be quite as good as what could be achieved starting from scratch.
