cool vid, too bad you ended on a very reductive, biased and shortsighted note. Le Corbusier did for architecture what almost no one else has. All works of architecture that have an ambition towards innovation are to be considered experimental and all works of architecture even the ones you would subjectively deem amazing are nothing but a balancing act, nothing is perfect. Le Corbusier was a visionary who continues to inspire today both in practice and in academia.

From the documentary a “low income resident said”, “during the day we would put our record player in the hallway and play Martha and the Vandellas as loud as it would go.” How long would you put up with that? The ‘working families’ left. Leaving only? EVERYONE KNOWS WHY IT FAILED. Take responsibility for yourself!

In Italia negli anni 60' - 70' - 80' , molti progettisti si ispirarono alle idee di Le Corbusier, dando vita a molti quartieri ............i risultati furono UN DISASTRO ! Basta ricordare le "Vele" di Scampia (Napoli), il quartiere ZEN (Palermo) , le "Lavatrici" (Genova), il Corviale (Roma) e molti altri GHETTI di cemento armato. Tutte realizzazioni dove il concetto di "unita' autonome" non ha MAI funzionato, costruzioni che sono andate incontro ad un degrado rapido, con una qualita' della vita pessima in queste orrende strutture. Un fallimento da prendere come esempio per non ripeterlo mai piu'.

Millions of people still live in these houses. Its more space efficient than building cottages (dacha) for all the folk just one of these blocks can house

0:41 In the 1930s, the Soviet Union built a stalinka apartment with a larger size than a kerucovka and made of brick. To this day, houses built during this period are highly valued .But this house is very famous for being close to the factory. The housing crisis did not exist before the war. 1:31 aftrer 1945 50 million people lost their homes and became homeless.Even 2 million houses per year is not enough. 1:38 what amenities What you get from living in the barracks ha!!

Soviet mikrodistric vs USA suburbia 0:07 This apartment In reality it is surrounded by trees as high as 30 meters. 0:23 It's strange to call it affordable because no one buys it. Also Soviet government has bigger problem. Moving people from barracks after their homes were destroyed by jerman in World War II to new apartments with running water. 0:29 That's a map of Russia, not the Soviet Union

Exactly why is it depressing? the design of the USSR is clearly based on supplying basic needs, not luxuries. You should watch the Eco Gecko video, I think it's pretty good and complements your video quite well: /watch?v=k1fFd4S9IBc

'Honest' Architect: These Soviet housing units were depressing! Also Honest Architect: The Soviets initiated a massive housing project to combat the huge demand. Schools, grocery stores, and other amenities were within walking distance, and there was ample space for greenery, leisure, and community activities!

Correct. The funds for maintenance and security would come from the city, which over time didn't spend enough. Like in so many older shopping malls, when maintenance and security funding are reduced (the two top items), crime increases.

A copy-cat version is Bunche Hall at UCLA. Rasing the building on pylons makes me feel like an ant crawling beneath a TV set. Having the building on pylons does free up the ground level, but I cannot resist feeling the enormous weight on top of me and again feeling like an ant crawling underneath a TV set.

Affordable housing has always and will always be terrible. Look at Pruitt Eigo in St Louis and Capridi Green in Chicago. And we still build them with the concept of shops on the ground floor. Half of the rentable spaces are vacant due to rental cost and most of the living units are used only part time. Putting a lot of people in one building for extended periods of time will never work.

Le Corbusier was a pioneer of true new city planning. His spirit was succeeded by South Korea's new city planning.
