I have the same gripe. Cheapness with the excuse of being "modern." Strong Modern-style architecture requires a lot of subtlety that's rarely lived up to.
it seems that cheap materials and relatively expensive labor both contributed to an overall death of taste. not that everything should be a doric column as that would be bad taste too. it's only we have become creatively bankrupt for the conditions we are in.
