What do you think about "city-garden of socialism" concept?

...

...

...

...

what

...

...

looks so surreal with the new skyline

I think it is usually called neo classicism. That architecture was mostly built during last years of Stalin-some streets in Moscow, Petersburg and some other cities.

what is the "city-garden of socialism" concept?

...

So stalinist architecture in general, it was all similar including that high building in Warsaw and MSU main building.

London

...

Some people call parts of the cities that were build during Stalin like that. They are much more aesthetical than later ones, no commieblocks.

You see it's really different from what people think when you say about "commie architecture".

...

...

they aren't bad, certainly better than just usual commie blocks

...

also i really like all these commie palaces

...

...

We call them "stalinki".

Any pictures of St.Petersburg?

nice brutalism

Have you guys ever been in your cities skyline?
>tfw I got fired from this job
>I use to eat outside on the rooftop cafe all the time at night.

...

Eh last one. I just wish my phone had a better camera.

what do you mean "been in your cities skyline"?

Why'd you get fired?

...

...

>can only pick one
Eh, that renders most cities there moot. I'd rather we had battles again. Those were fun, despite the shitposting.

HR lady was being a MASSIVE cunt and got me fired by rigging the computer system to combine a point system from 2 different work places I worked at.

>If you are late you get a point.
>get scheduled to work at 2 different places at the same time
>Get late to them even though I complained
>Get fired.

Women really can't be in charge of anything without fucking it up.

Finally the poll is getting some votes.

Istanbul

Not quite sure what you mean by "being in the skyline", but I have been to the tallest skyscraper in my cunt.

literally no point to make 1v1s and that's due to various reasons one of the most important is that /urban/ doesn't get a lot of votes anyway

It wouldn't let me vote for some reason.

...

what's the message you are getting

you need to solve the captcha

Who knows, another contest could pick up the pace, and Euros love talking about their cities after all. But my point is that there's too many cities in the poll, of which only a handful are good enough to compete against each other.

...

desu the last battle of skylines was still in 2015 so I think we can make another one

but I don't really think it should be 1v1 again
>But my point is that there's too many cities in the poll
yeah well... I just did this poll for fun it wasn't to be mentioned to be a part of any larger "contest"

I guessed it was all in good fun, but still. Starting off with the poll before posting all cities is also tricky, as many people will vote before having seen everything offered. I suspected Moscow would be in the lead anyways, but it didn't give the other places a chance for those who don't have a bias or can be bothered to google.

...

nah it's not like people would vote for the cities posted in the thread, Moscow is simply the most popular also I won't be posting all of the cities anyway I'm just posting the top ones

I included that many cities so no one comes and says
"WHY MUH BIRMINGHAM IS NOT INCLUDED WE HAVE A GREAT SKYLINE!!! WHERE IS MY KIEV" etc

60% of the cities in the poll are utter garbage in terms of skyline

nvm it works now. I did solve captcha but when I hit submit it wouldn't do anything. It works now that other people voted I guess.

Warsaw

I guess there was some issue with strawpoll, until like 30 minutes ago the poll had only 4 votes despite being up for hours

Warsaw with the "fake" supertall
