"Stalinist" houses series II-18

This mod adds 8 options for brick plastered houses of type II-18: 1-5 sectional nine-story buildings and 1-3 sectional five-story buildings. Unlike the first version of these houses, brick is used in the construction. The houses themselves are joked and quite richly decorated, which brings my houses even closer to the Stalin era) Also, my houses have almost nothing to do with the II-18 series, only the layout remained. We can say that this is already a new series of houses invented by me personally))
I must say right away that my houses are not those richly decorated palaces for workers, but Stalin's of the late period, half a Khrushchev (see history). These buildings are based on the II-18 series, but have elements of the houses of the II-04, II-05, II-08 series, such as ceilings of 3 meters, stucco molding, a more ornate facade, doors and windows from the early-mid 50s, which makes my houses more "Stalinist". Thanks to this, my houses are perfect for the 1954-1960 building period, perfectly fitting into the urban environment. Subscribe if you want your citizens to live in comfortable stalinkas of mass construction! :)

A bit of history:
The "Stalinist" houses today include residential buildings erected both before the war, starting with the II five-year plan (1933-1937), and since the beginning of post-war reconstruction, up to 1956, when the decision was made "On the elimination of excesses in design and construction." ...

The actual construction of the stalinkas ceased around 1960, when the construction of significant town planning projects that were not subject to change was completed in the largest cities.

The style of pre-war houses is sometimes attributed as post-constructivism, and post-war - as "Stalinist Empire"

The era of classic houses in the Stalinist style came to an end after the adoption of a decree on the fight against architectural excesses. In 1956-1960. buildings of the transitional type were built, which combined the "Stalinist" monumentality and the almost complete absence of any decor. Such half-stalin-half-khrushchevs ("stripped stalinkas") can be found in large numbers in Moscow and other cities of the country. In particular, the northern part of Profsoyuznaya Street in Moscow is built up with houses of this type. Living quarters in "stripped" houses were still designed according to the "Stalinist" standards set out in the 1954 SNiP.

In the first half of the 1950s, a course was set for the standardization of housing construction. Standard precast concrete goods are being introduced into construction to speed up construction, fire-hazardous wooden floors are being abandoned in favor of prefabricated reinforced concrete slabs, and stalinkas erected according to standard designs appear.

The construction of Stalinist houses fell sharply in 1958, when guidelines were adopted for industrial mass housing construction and the reduction in construction costs by reducing the size of residential premises, which led to the emergence of arrays of cheap standard "Khrushchevs". Separate Stalinist houses were completed by inertia until 1961.
