I take a lecture in America. The architect talks about his most successful and expensive public building project. The phrase goes through: “In the end, the price of the building was incredible $500 per square foot!” and all of those whisper and say “Wow!” I stumbled and it turned out to be about $5,000 per square meter.

This is how I understood that the Moscow Khrushchevs are cooler than the most expensive American projects.
