In the last five pages, I have not seen anything that truly makes me not like what I am seeing. So, sorry, I just like too much varied architecture. Bruitalist, towerblocks, mega malls, underground labyrinths ... I appreciate them all (so far).

^^^ YES! Even that one. I don't care, something about it reminds me of the slaughterhouse district where I grew up. Loved the smell. Still to this day. And also, like I mentioned before, there should be Soylent Green made there. Or maybe it's an eastern European "international" airport.
I wouldn't call these two brutalist but they're finally demolishing Cavendish House in Dudley which has been a blot on the landscape for years (and that's saying something in Dudley):
And Wolverhamptons Indoor Market has finally gone. What an utter ****-hole that place was. The regeneration is going to take a while but the plans for it I like the look of.
I agree, I appreciate the history, but they are ugly, made even more ugly by the councils allowing a lot of the blocks to become slums. The flats near me, of this era, in Mitcham had about 25-30% scum bags living there who probably made a lot of the other tennant's life a mysery.

Some significant concretion went on in the sixties there. Quite a chunk of it is gone now.

Even Cumbernauld shopping centre?
Don't get my wrong I'm all for brutalist, but this one is just too disorganized.
