During the postwar years, there was a serious housing crisis, solved by the invention of high-rise apartments. There are about 13,000 of these standardized and prefabricated apartment blocks, housing the majority of Moscow’s population.
Apartments were built and partly furnished in the factory before being raised and stacked into tall columns. The popular Soviet-era comic film Irony of Fate parodies this construction method. These rare and amazing color photos from Pussreboots captured street scenes of Moscow in 1950.
