    Homes are better than homelessness 100% but those commieblock suburbs can be pretty depressing. And I’ve lived in a few. Different colours and some evergreen stuff helps a bunch. Even some other marerials, some wood panels etc. But it all ads cost.

      tbf, they were built after ww2, the goal was to rebuild as many homes as possible as fast as possible. which was accompanied.

      I’d rather live in a commie block post ww2, than be homeless through a few Russian winters.

        These sort of housing projects popped up in many parts of the world and sometimes they definitely were needlessly austere. Better than nothing though. A lot better.
