They aren't even that ugly. Spartan maybe, I'd prefer some nice arty touches, but a Soviet housing district looks fine. It's just the west always photographs them at 3pm in February rather than high spring when the trees and flowers are out in the courtyards.
That's been bothering me for a while. Yeah, everything looks grey and shitty in the middle of winter. When you see pictures during the spring and summer where everything is green they look beautiful.
