Yup, a thread about commieblocks, or to be precise - commieblock pics

I agree with boom. I like the first one and wouldnt mind staying in it. Russia should take my suggestion and build more of these

sOmeOne · November 25th, 2003, 04:31 AM

I honestly thought it was the ugliest of all these

sOmeOne · November 25th, 2003, 07:16 AM

Commieblocks are so nice and warm and happy! I think most of you will agree with me on this one

It's not the countryside

It's the suburbs, and those buildings are far-far away from the city center

This is just how it works, Russian cities get higher as they spread.

Good Lord, it's hideous, but somehow I can't look away.

Commieblocs are strangely fascinating. It's funny to think that in the west people pay good money to live in inner city apartment towers whilst I bet everyone in those pictured above couldn't wait to get out, of course I guess the inner city western towers are a bit nicer

Still these Commieblocs are rather dehumanising, I feel bad for people who have to live in them, Russia is a big country, there's lot of room to build housing estates, it's shame ppl can't afford them.
