Khrushchevka

Russian term for residential blocks built in the 1960s

Khrushchevkas are a type of low-cost, concrete-paneled or brick three- to five-storied apartment building and apartments in these buildings, which were designed and constructed in the Soviet Union since the early 1960s, during the time its namesake Nikita Khrushchev was the leader of the Soviet Union. Khrushchevkas are sometimes compared to the Japanese danchi, similar housing projects from the same period, which by some accounts were directly inspired by them.
