Soviet architecture just reflects how simply horrid and brutal life in the nation(s) was/were.

it's quite weird to see corbu's early 30's style in such large scale. btw, i remember my history teacher once told me that the building was in terrbile shape... from the photos here it looks very ok to me. have they recently renovated it? or... ? anyway, this is a fantastic thread. i'll soon scan some good-quality photos from a huge book called "architecture of the ussr 1917-1987" - there's even some very-very bad photos of estonian stuff here... keep up the good work, lattice!

aah, one very interesting thing:
the scale of these planned soviet symbols is just incredible... ![]() ... interesting fact: the crystal island building designed in norman foster's office, if built, would extend up to the height of lenin's crotch

because the building was uniqe, not like most of soviet-time copy/paste architecture. it was a fine example of monumental soviet postmodernism, and one of the best works by the famous architect raine karp.
many people disliked the building for its communist past - it used to house the bureau of political education. architectural value was not considered by the city officials and the developer... although the heritage protection, art / architecture historians and other intelligent people were against demolishing the building... soviet-time architecture is not very well thought of in estonia... i hope this will change soon.
