The Communist countries did create some awful cheap modernist stuff but they also did restore some old centres very nicely. The Old Town of Warsaw was pretty much completely levelled to the ground in WWII but was then subsequently restored to its previous state.
The city beyond that area though saw a lot of ugly commieblock development.
