These look alright, which is a vast improvement over many projects. The final finish/paint could still mess it up. Not every project needs to be an architectural marvel, and this one is well into the acceptable range as-is.

The first 2 pics resemble a Soviet prison but the 3rd pic looks fine.

1 building per year more or less…..sounds possible

Such a monstrosity.

Sad to contrast vs the original builds. The thick outer balcony columns really suck on all of eagles’ builds. View attachment 714671View attachment 714672View attachment 714673

Komrade this is a beautiful marvel of Soviet architecture, to the gulag with you.

That last image is an incredible contrast in how the vision of century park devolved. Those original builds still look great so many years later. They are an anomaly in the city

A Berlin industrial vibe.

Tasteful cladding and a park/playground with trees (I love a little birch pocket forest) in the courtyard would make this shine.

Agreed, very Marzahn. And yes, for this to really work is needs good landscaping and places for people to hang out outside.

Greenery and parks and such would be nice, but I highly suspect it'll be more of what the other phase of this project has. Parking, baby! But lets hope...

I've heard of polishing a turd but you'd have to destroy all of the earth's resources to create enough polish to redeem that.... "thing".
