If you’re tall, then yes, it won’t be pleasurable as well. Especially sad because houses of earlier Stalin period were awesome. It doesn’t make Stalin any better, and he wasn’t solving the problem of overpopulation by building houses (sad joke), but the houses from tgat period are well built, have high ceilings, thick walls, sometimes nice things like second entrances and garbage chutes, etc. This was connected with the industrial and economical boom after the war (so, generally the same stuff that happened in the us, only in the us people got a bigger piece of pie).
I converted the heights for you:
Each city had them but as guy above said, they were for the party members and you had to be decently well ranked to get a stalin style apartment. they were deff luxury.
They were better, but what do youmean by “Stalin luxury”? Again, I not speaking of several unique buildings in Moscow, SPb, etc. I’m speaking of thousands buildings in many many cities, buildings of a period.
Let’s take my family or people I know as an example:
the only person remotely “high ranked” was my grandfather, an engineer of a shipbuilding bureau. He and my father’s family got a four-room apartment in one of those 1000s of buildings. Same as many other engineers, he wasn’t super high ranked.
at the same time, my grandma’s sister got a same-type apartment, before my grandma even knew my grandpa. Guess what profession she was? A nurse! Does that sound like Stalin-level?
My classmate was one of four kids, so they got apartment in stalinka as a part of a social quota for families like that.
What do you say, is my family special? We don’t have wikipedia pages, and we weren’t anything special in financial terms.
Are you even from USSR/Russia, or you just read about it?

There is nothing to be sad because houses of earlier Stalin period were not for people, but for nomenclature.
There’s a shitton of nice buildings, I’m not telling about Moscow towers only
