This article gives an overview of some aspects of postmodern reality, directly touching upon the large-scale housing estates, and searches for the evidence to prove such an assumption that the post-Soviet society has changed; thus, the high-quality existence in the large-scale housing estates becomes impossible without changing them essentially. The research is based on the analysis of literature, comparison of analogies: the experiences of cases of Western Europe. The result of this research is the conceptual framework for the regeneration of large-scale post-Soviet housing districts.
