If you like Brutalism, go to Washington DC and it's suburbs. I hate it with a passion, because having lived surrounded by it, I find it to be cold and uninviting, and utterly devoid of charm. Perhaps that's because it's always manifested in poorly scaled urban areas where the density isn't utilized properly for human scale activities.
Edit: OK, I think my definition of Brutalism vs. yours is far more conservative. The Parisian manifestation seems to be far more artistic.
Lived in a 1969 built high-rise, surrounded on all sides by other high-rises of the same design. Check out Crystal City in Arlington, VA. That's where I was living. The older buildings are all like that.
DC's metro stations are all the same way, and most of the federal buildings also.
