Reply to comment by NarwhalNectarine in ELI5: Why does Europeans build houses out of brick when wood frame seems like the better choice across the board? by scorr204

There's an apartment building in the city I live thats from 1308. - Europe (city withheld for anonymity) and it withstood two world wars. So brick and stone is pretty long lasting. 100 years is not long.
