This era of Soviet public works is undefeated. One of my favourites

I really like early Soviet architecture. My favourite being the “Stalinka” architecture or Stalinist architecture which was in the style of socialist classicism. This architectural style was officially endorsed by the man himself - Josef stalin. The design was characterized by its elegant and domineering features and it was found throughout the union but mostly in Moscow.

They also started the supports and base for this behemoth of a building. I wish they would’ve gone through with it. Minus Mr. Lenin gaabey on the top-

I adore grand construction projects that are beautiful and show the character of your civilization. I don’t see much of it around anymore. What do you guys think of Soviet society?
