Well, I guess some nasty Bolshevists might want to include some Stalinist architecture to it.
Like those dystopian things for instance.

But I would deeply hate it, given the sadistic and perverse traits of that kind of regimes.

Besides, advocating the US achievements in that respect is fair, because their work was earlier and more original. And just more democratic, bigger and better.

So, I'd rather be a faithful friend of America in this case. Actually, I'd like a bunch of their skyscrapers to get in the Unesco World Heritage list.
