Massive theological/philosophical shifts. Architecture is a good berometer of what a peoples believes to be true of the world.
Post 1920s architecture became increasingly statist, anti-theistic, and anti-human.
Post-industrialism also saw an increasing loss of craftsmanship and skills over the course of the past 200 years. We simply don't know HOW to make buildings like this anymore.
Add a century of fiat and high time preference to that backdrop.
There is a slow but present resurgence of excellent architecture, though. New Urbanism and New Traditional Architecture are two movements happening in Europe and America right now. Not the caliber of architecture you picture here, but a welcomed development nonetheless.
