The restoration of Polish cities from WW2 destruction

Modern but extremely boring leading to my depressive states whenever I see it. :):):)


No, it didn`t have it - most flats built in communism were tragically small. Ones of the smallest in Europe. We are still haunted with this dubious heritage today.


Yes, but you can still avoid such problems when you build replicas of traditional tenement halls. You don`t need to build depressive socialists blocks of flats which all look the same.

Check Gdańsk - those replicas look a lot better than blocks. Recently they started adding architectonic ornaments on their facades which were skipped in communist times to economise on costs.

They were small elsewhere and are small today. Keeps costs down, and not as small as the huts the people in them came from.


Apartment blocks?

Why build 'replicas'? Are we stuck in the past with no good new ideas?

You don`t know what a tenement hall is?? Amasing. :):):)


Because replicas of old style classic architecture from the past look more interesting than pseudo old modern monsters.
Check out these monstrosities which imitate the old style. Better than crude blocks but still don`t suit the place. Gdańsk again
