re: #106 Dr Lizardo

Heh. I once took the red line all the way to the end. Housing estates (sidlště) as far as the eye could say. Panelk heaven.

I live at the edge of the city limits of Ostrava now……in panelk heaven. LOLOL.

I was there for about 18 months. It looks like a city skyline, but it’s nothing but panelky (aka pre-fab highrise workers abodes). One can find such scenes in almost any city of size in the former communist Europe, but Prague’s Jižn Město (home to a good 80,000 people at least) is the biggest example of this I have ever seen in my travels.

Here is a Wikipedia pic of the kind of buildings we are talking about for the curious.
