The first pictures are from a group interested in tourism. Obviously they're not going to show something too bad.

I've been to Prague and to the former East Berlin. Alot of the housing appeared gray and non-descript by U.S. standards. But appearances can be deceiving and that does mean it was bad. I've yet to see a major European (former communist or not) that didn't have a lot of beauty. Someone I work with has visited St. Petersburg in recent years and he has more than once raved about it.
