> Paris do not have such buildings in their city centers.

Because you were lucky enough to avoid the worst parts:

- Marseille: https://www.google.com/maps/@43.2890541,5.437606,3a,75y,185....

- Toulouse: https://www.google.com/maps/@43.5804085,1.4105313,3a,75y,287...

That Paris thing is certainly bad, but it looks rather like a backside, which often are not pretty. From the other side the buildings look nicer: https://www.google.com/maps/@48.8230784,2.3662426,3a,75y,136...

Tolouse is not pretty - one of the Corbusier's or Corbusier-inspired crimes, but at least it does not have the scale.

That said even a tall and long building doesn't have to be dramatically bad https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falowiec#/media/File:GDANSK,_F...

I live in Paris; believe me, the best and the worst are two streets away. There are quarters in the 18th or the 13th that make OPs photo look like a dream.

Now there is a lot of subjectivity here, and to be honest, I'm not fond of the Warsaw building either, so I might be a very poor judge of modern architecture.

the second and third photos aren't too bad actually, but first one could indeed have Blade Runners around...
