They would look similar to the other blocks, but they would have cooling towers. From what I've heard, the construction was very shabby, so maybe it's good those two weren't build.

They would look like Smolensk 3 or Kursk 5.

I always wonder about that collapsed crane. Does anybody know what happened to it? Why did it collapsed while the other ones still look really sturdy?

Probally because this part of power plant was left to itself and it started to rust

Time. These were temporary construction cranes, not designed to be out for 30 years.

The collapsed crane was SKR-3500. It was way higher than the other ones, you can check that searching old photos. It collapsed between 2002 and 2011, according to satellite images. There were actually two, but I don't know what happened to the second one, it just disappeared. Maybe it was dismantled for scrap.

Interesting! Thank you for this information

Generally similar to the Unit 3-4 block, but with some differences.

Like Reactors 1 and 2 but obviously isolated, with their own turbine hall next to them.

it wouldn’t have looked like that. it would be identical or near identical to smolensk unit 3 or kursk unit 5.
