Soviet buildings and urban identity are not that bad. I say this after having lived there, in several other places and by being an architect. e.g. Is Australian / US low income housing better than Soviet? So as somebody who lives in London, explain to me why Los Angeles always looks so featureless, so lacking in any kind of urban identity I'd expect to find in a city? It always looks to me no so much as a city, but rather merely some buildings that are connected by freeways.
