      Pictures that are used to show how "bad" they are are also usually taken during overcast spring days before any vegitation has come out. You could put anything in the same light and it would look like shit.

        like also considering it is the soviet union i think a lot of aesthetics worries would probably disappear as you have to choose to live there or die on the streets in the russian winter like the danger of homelessness seems real big in russia so ease of construction is important
