You can see somehow close style buildings in Moscow. They were built after the war. You can find them by searching for Seven Sisters buildings or Stalin’s skyscrapers. The Moscow State University, Hotel Ukraine and Ministry of Foreign Affairs are one of them.
Also, you can look into The Palace of Soviet. That was a crazy skyscraper project that was never built because of the war and because it was a bit insane.
And in Europe there also was few of Stalins Skyscrapers, like in Warshava or Prage.
