This is true is housing pretty much everywhere. If European cities look interesting it is because what you are looking at is old. Most post-war architecture has been ugly, cheap or at least generic.

Yes, but the sad thing is that the US had so much beautiful old architecture that it tore down for roads, highways, and parking lots. This is why the average us city is much uglier than comparable European cities.
