There is certainly a distinct difference. My preference would be for the older style. Who needs plain, stark buildings covered in glass? I'd also bet the older buildings have a lot more character inside than the new ones.
Ah, distinct differences they are indeed!! I do SO agree with Lowell, "who needs plain, stark buildings covered with glass and 'dull' on the inside!! The older style was one of the things that I enjoyed SO much when I lived in Europe!! Thank you, Jose, as always for sharing the beauty of your world!! Have a wonderful weekend!
I know others find the mix of old and new jarring but I think it can be achieved really well. The older building is pretty amazing Jose, so much detail.

Very nice architectural contrasts.

I like contrasts, but in this case I'm not sure...
That really is the old and the new, quite a contrast. Diane
I think they actually blend well--- Nice shot.
Blends well and enhances the character of the city.
Old and new work well together here!
They do blend well, though I prefer the older architecture.
An odd mixture of styles, but that is what a modern city is.

I like the way the new is added to the old rather than tearing down the old and replacing it entirely.
