Let me introduce a new thread about commieblocks in Košice, Slovakia.
Košice has 240 000 inhabitants, ca. 60-70% live in commieblocks built during socialistic era (1948–1989). During that era there were built approximately 66 000 apartments in commieblocks.
According to plans from mid 1980'es, another circa 50 000 apartments were planned to built between 1990 and 2010. Of course, due to political changes in 1989 were these megalomanic plans declined.
For Košice (but also for former Czechoslovakia) is typical huge typization of blocks, schools, kindergartens, shopping centers etc. in commie-districts. During 1965–1982 era were used only two types of blocks with some minor modifications in Košice.
