The expansion is not that unrealistic. In Estonia, my country, most of 50-90 expansion happened on the city limits where there really were only fields or even forests. Only "fancy" buildings for the party members were built in the city itself or some grand buildings to show the power of communism was also built in the city.

Open spacer between houses and towers was related to few key parametres- distances of view, angle of sun rays and amount of inhabitants per hectare. It was actually regulated by state issued normes and standarts. As the numebr of inhabitants per hectare of open green space grew, so upwardly grew the houses, reaching 15- 20 floors max, like in Warsaw. As for perpendicular orientation- it is to allow all the apartments acess to direct sunlight from west side and east side alike, and also to distance and separate pedestrian traffic from car traffic.

Hey, great video. I noticed that during the late 1950s and early 1960s, many cities constructed concrete prefabricated hotels, such as Hotel Hutník in Košice, Hotel Šariš in Prešov, Hotel Kyjev in Bratislava, or the famous Hotel Pyramida in Praha. A lot of these hotels also were built with department stores, like Obchodné Domy PRIOR, such as the one again in Bratislava. Otherwise, great video, I really enjoy your content. :)

Everyone misses a very common detail in this style when they recreate something like this - it's floristry. A huge number of flowerbeds of different colors that were planted in ornaments or simply in a combination of different colors. It was especially widespread in the southern regions of the USSR. If we take gardening as an example in general, then they also do not do enough here. Because first of all, unlike Western countries, the number of trees and shrubs was very large, sometimes even to the detriment. A real Soviet city is a forest city, if you explain it quite simply. And the busts of the most important ideologues have never been put in your fence like that. They were the center of the composition in squares or other significant places. These are the 2 grossest mistakes of modders.

Heck even Phoenix AZ has plenty of trees in the older 1950s/1960s suburbs even tho it’s a desert. Seattle and portland are very Forresty and so are places like the suburbs of NYC (excluding Nassau) and places like Philly and it’s suburban areas

As an architecture historian from Warsaw, Poland, who specializes in XX century, I'd like to add that "socrealizm" (as its called in Poland) was oficially enacted in spring/summer 1949 in art and culture and architecture, and abandoned almost overnight in spring of 1956, after a year or so of public critique and discussions. The irony was that the largest socrealistic skyscraper and detailed comission, Palace of Culture and Science in Warsaw ( gift from USRR) was oficially opened in july 1955, with full decor etc. while in the mean time all other monumental projects ( both housing and public) were being scaled down or finished off without any details or decorations. PS. Poland after the war almost instantly proceeded to create its own pre-fab designs..

Hey man, your work is incredible! The effort you put in building and the amount of historical and cultural details that you share is outstanding. I feel like you spent hours, and hours to learn about all of that and to prepare such a video for us. Thank you for that! The only aspect that i could be critical about here xd is the placment of your new monumental hotel. its a minor thing, however, i live in Warsaw and in my not important opinion, the monument was not highlighted enough. i mean that it is placed in a spot that a normal building would be placed, surrounded by roads, not much space in between the roads and the building, and also other buildings. For example Palace of Culture and Science has a lot of space all around it, parks, squares etc. it is clear that everything was done to point it out and put it in spotlight ( actally like most of the major monuments anywhere in the world). But anyways i cannot wait for the next episode! Keep up the great work!

Something I would like to see as this city progresses is newer electric transit vehicles like trams and trolleybuses. Hundreds of trolleybuses systems populated the eastern bloc (and still do today in most of the larger cities) and soviet/eastern bloc-built trams (Tatra T3, KTM 5, ETC) started to appear in the 1960's. Older and nicer looking cities usually got trams like Tatras, which look nicer. While most soviet built cities got KTM5 and other usually quickly built trams. Later on, of course most trolleybus systems got either dismantled or largely reduced. Even in cities like Moscow trolleybuses were all gone by the early 2010's. I would guess because this is seemingly a very old city Tatras would fit better but KTM's could really work in those new districts/suburbs. Thats what happened in even someone of at least Russia's biggest cities.

Including so realist city planning and maybe also industry (there were a lot of metallurgy industry in Huta - it's name literally means "new steelworks") It was actually separate expansion added in open field, first designed as separate city, then integrated as district to Kraków, so it might fit.

As an idea to facilitate the building of socialist blocks, you could look a bit into the history of Romania's '77 earthquake. It destroyed many old buildings, and with our communist leader just having seen Pyongyang, the capital per se saw a MASSIVE amount of "socialist" blocks being built. Bucharest is full of massive blocks all thanks to the earthquake.

In fact, Soviet architecture is not so bad, especially the way it is painted in the West. The problem is that a huge number of buildings for several hundred million people were no longer maintained due to the transition to a profitable economy during the era of Perestroika, which led to the refusal of their maintenance, due to which quite tidy yards and houses turned into something that you can see today: dirty, chaotic, crumbling and so on. Renovating all this is simply not profitable. I myself live in a building of the Stalin era, three-meter ceilings and walls that can withstand a tank shot, allow you to live within cool temperatures in summer and warm (even hot) temperatures in winter.

I love the episode, but I think that the block around the socialist-modernist hotel should remain as a green space. Those buildings were statements of power and ability of the new governments and were designed to astonish and impress with their size, so they were often displayed on open grounds, as to magnify their size effect. So I think a plaza with a few trees or a treeless space with a monument, would suit that space much better

You really nailed the looks of the prefab buildings - they truely capture the aesthetic of the mid to late 50s in central europe (the facades and the colors look almost identical to buildings near the Altmarkt in Dresden also completed at that time). Unfortunatly all of this coudn‘t really be said about the new Hotel. I mean the building itself is really nice but the Integration into the larger area isn‘t very well done compared to not only many real life examples of that style but also the general principles of it. The Hotel is placed too tight next to the road and the other older buildings in that area. All of it feels much more like 1920s New York or Chicago as opposed to 1950s Altengrad and this will only be more extreme after the rework of the Intersection (possibly involving some kind of overpass?). An easy fix would be to also (at least partly) demolish the city block right next to it. The Hotel could then be turned by 90 dergrees and there would be ample room for greenery, fountains, flowers, ecetera. Maybe this level of density could be restored in the 90s but for now there definitly needs to be more open space in that area.

Another one of my buildings in this great city, thank you! Regarding the styles of the new buildings, I've always found it interesting how buildings where I live, and generally in (former) Yugoslavia, were similar yet very different from other socialist and communist buildings. For example, the hotel and the prototype residential building fit perfectly in the more central European setting of Altengrad or even in more eastern countries, but would never work in Yugoslavia. Even though it was aligned with the USSR for the first few years, here the stalinist socialist-realist style was entirely skipped - important public buildings were designed in the international style (more similar to western Europe), while residential buildings were instantly designed more like the non-prototype buildings shown here (even though they weren't always prefabricated) - simple and without almost any decoration, more in line with the modernist style of the 1930s. Another notable thing is that the building designes became much more elaborate and complex frome the late 1960s to the late 1980s.

Hi Akruas are you going to upload these flathouses to the workshop ? I am planning to build some eastern block city in a near future and it would help me a lot :-)

No, since its a custom thing put together in the game, not an asset that can be uploaded.

From my point of view this expansion is kinda realistic. I live in Płock, Poland. In 1960s we had around 40k people living here. In 80s that number went to 100k and in 90s to 130k. So as you can imagine city had to expand towards farming fields and smaller villages. There were no option to build that much homes inside the city. It all was effect of building oil refinery and oil industry in the city. Builders and workers needed housing so communist government just threw dozens of housing blocks, whole neighborhoods in open fields. My neighborhood was build in 70s and was expected to stay here temporally for 30 years, but then communist government went down and neighbourhood is still here. Other similar neighborhood kinda just ends without any warning. I mean you walk over there and you are in typical post communist housing district but second later you are in forest with hills, little stream and wildlife. I've seen deers living there. No gradual transition, just straight cut from city to forest. So I think your expansion is kinda in line with how communists were building expansions. You can always build some big industry and explain that it was the reason.
