Greek Architecture

Classical Greek architecture is alive.  Look at cities and towns around the world and you will see elements everywhere- including in Deerfield and certainly Chicago.  Why do we still embrace an architectural style that is well over 2,000 years old?  What does that say about Greek civilization?  What does that say about us?
