POLL: What interests you about Soviet urban development?
Added 2025-08-25 07:04:30 +0000 UTCThe most popular video topic in my last poll was the one on Lazdynai, the most praised residential district in all of the USSR in the 70s. I've been reading a lot on the topic in preparation for writing the script, and there's a lot of material that can be covered. So I wanted to ask: what aspects of this topic were you most curious about? Multiple choice is allowed!

So: what might I learn about the values/perspective of such development that were so well-realized in this particular instance?
