Almost all Riga suburbs looks very similar. Furthermore in all Soviet cities suburbs are built in a similar way :)
One of the most famous Russian movies is Irony of Fate.
This movie is about regular guy living in Moscow, who get drunk and accidentally took a plane to Leningrad (second largest city in USSR)
In Leningrad airport the guy took a taxi and ask to bring him home by telling his Moscow address. Taxi driver brought him to the same address but in Leningrad.
Area was identical, street was identical, house was identical, and the key to his Moscow flat matched to the Leningrad door... He got entered into another flat and felt asleep.
What happened next? Owner of the flat, good-looking woman, came home later and found a stranger sleeping in her bed...

The topic of Soviet architecture in Riga is being raised quite often.
