Welcome, to City 17.
How'd it get so dilapidated
I'm not sure on that. As what I heard on that it's because development company abandon this building after 2014 oil drop and some problems with construction. It looks very cool before that.
Pity.
Big F Russianbro. Its always sad to see when buildings fall in disrepair due to economic reasons.
To lighten up the thread a picture of the main building of my university.
Is this Half-Life 2 ?
We had picrelated (colloquially known as the ''five-winged six-dicker'') at the centre of the fucking capital for 30 years.
>five-winged six-dicker
What?
It's because it looks like absolutely nothing.
It looks cool though.
Beautiful. Inspiring
Well it didn't look as bad when installed (although I personally dislike that kind of totalitarian style), but then it fell in disrepair and just stood there like a monstrous concrete pimple.
SOVL
Also the retarded senile architect who designed it fought tooth and nail vs the city council to protect it from demolition, I think some Russophile organisations even gave him legal help
ngl that looks cool for how much would your gov sell it to mine?
I'm afraid it's all recycled by now.
Google says it is/was a monument for 1.300 yeas of bulgarian history.
>I personally dislike that kind of totalitarian style
The funny thing is that the soviets were able and willing to build absolutely beautiful buildings but somehow this didn't translate to your example. I think it looks like something build in minecraft. And not in a good way.
get on my level
Also in our city we have a bunch of ugly buildings that considered culturally important because of muh constructivism. Communication house.
White tower.
The contrast between Russia's rich history and its post-Soviet present makes me very anxious
Cheka house
Those don't look that bad.
Yeah, it was made during the nationalist hysteria in the 80's.
>the soviets were able and willing to build absolutely beautiful buildings but somehow this didn't translate to your example
Well I find it all soulless and fugly but ours is particularly bad, I agree. Another example.
:DDD
My fucking god. This looks like a giant jail cell. What purpose this serves?
A new coat of paint would do wonders. But what's the purpose of this building?
I was thinking more of the moscow state university or the stalingrad memorial on the Mamayev Kurgan.
Your picture i find not as bad as the first ones. The building in the background looks quite nice. Not to life in but as a Viewing platform.
