      In case anyone is wondering, that’s Komsomolskaya station, built in 1952. Later stations tended to not be so opulent.

          That’s not opulent, that’s just bad taste. The other one was absolutely beautiful.

          I think I owe you an apology. I took your initial comment as you trying to insult me, given our past interactions. Not that I wasn’t giving an honest opinion on the design itself, but otherwise I would have just kept it to myself.

      Feels a little bougie if you ask me, but to each their own.

        Funny you’d say that, because even though the first plans for it date back to the Russian Empire, it was the communists under Stalin who actually built it.
