I wonder if commie blocks were made with urban warfare in mind.

More likely they wanted to prohibit from everything going up in flames so they solved the crisis of their own inept slav building with spreading the living space out on isolated concrete blocks so fire never would be able to spread other than the one block cyka.

Depends, on the summer evening yes. Most of the time however not. I live in a renoavted commie block, new elevators, new elevation, new paint all flats are renovated so it's a nice place to live but i rember time when everything was still post commie. It has a special feel but it's not that comfy when you're living as a poorfag in a communistc country with no hopes for the future. There are far better places for comfy living that commie blocks.

as hell, acoustic is excellent so you hear neighbours fucking, quarrelling, shouting, sometimes snoring, loud music (you know, bass is very important), dogs barking, children crying and dropping shit on the floor etc.

also it may be hot in the summer and cold in the winter, in the old ones you meet problems with electricity, you need a heater for water, the lift is broken often, and it invites you to get smashed between floors, some people spit on the moving doors

also if you cannot make to your toilet you piss in the ground floor, some people keep rotting things in the basement, there might be rats, sometimes they come out of the toilet

in the block you may have ants, cockroaches, pigeons shit on your balcony and wakes you up at 4:30 am

did I miss anything?

leaking roof? cracks on the walls? lime scale blocking pipes? Jehovah witnesses? eggs and potato sellers? chimney sweeps selling calendars and shit for luck? tons of ads in the mailbox? pungent smell of cucking food?

Some cultural difference. As i understand on the west people usually rent apartment. In Russia it is different apartments belong to inhabitants. Only around 15% of Russians rent them. Thanks to Yeltsin during privatization he granted state owned apartments to their inhabitants. You may accuse Yeltsin in many sins but one thing he had. The big heart and ability to make genial moves worth of great kings of the past.

I can't imagine jew Putin making similar present to Russian people. ("present" heh it is actually Russian people who built this houses). Current Russian government makes moves in the opposite direction to strip people from their housing property. Laws about de-privatisation and rising property tax (it already rose literally 100 times since Yeltsin and not going to stop).

Very much. Though it depends on the type of the house and neighbourhood Though russian cities lack ghettos, some areas have dumber/more aggressive inhabitants than the others: For example, the areas where, in soviet times, apartments were distributed among the factory workers will be worse than average.

The stores on the main street haven't aged well and many become unused as local stores are less necessary for consumers.

That's also kind of a blessing though because parking anywhere near them during the day was a nightmare since little has changed since they were built.
>>
>>77938581
Some of them have their basements linked, and a lot of the commie blocks have metal doors on the basement windows.
One time I got into the basement of an old commie block to save a stray dog that fell trough a service shaft.
I ended up walking from one block all the way to the other, and it was obvious no one had set foot for years, it was like something out of a horror movie, so many cobwebs holy shit.

Anyone know why suburbs are designed with curved roads, cul de sac and random shapes rather than a grid (or at least something less random)?

I'm personally not a fan of suburbs. They're no doubt comfy, but when I can afford my own place i'm going with either a nice apartment in the city or a comfy renovated townhouse in an inner-city suburb close to the CBD (as long as it isn't an extravagant price).
>>
>>77938581
Not entirely. I'm not implying you can get around the whole city trough underground.
Some are only connected with small tunnels where the main pipes go. But you can get trough these if you need to.

Tho, many might be damaged as recently they dug up these pipes and I'm not sure if they repaired the tunnels or just put soil over it.

I think I'd hang myself if I was living in suburbs of such design. At least when you exit the commieblock, there is a city around you, with shops, parks, schools and whatever else among other commieblocks. Not the purgatory of a suburb as far as eye can see.

All rationalizations aside, the real reason for these commie blocks is because they are the absolute cheapest, most effective way to shove as many people into as little square footage as possible.

They minimize the amount of exterior wall while maximizing the number of inhabitants. When you live in a third world country, as all communist or socialist countries are, and the govt can barely afford the $0.30/hour wage construction workers make, you have to get the biggest bang for your buck possible.

I find it humorous how you losers are defending these shitholes. I would love to own one of these, can you imagine the cash flow? It would throw off millions a year and all I'd have to do to keep everyone happy is tell them some of the lies you've convinced yourself of.
