INHABITANCY.
INHABITANCY.
Alexander MARUSHCHAK, Novel GREBA "Today".
WHAT DO WE SHOULD CONSTRUCT MANHATTAN ON DNEPR?.
Whether it is possible to spoil Kiev? Without ceremony, if to erect in the centre
Some ugly buildings. The most terrible, that they already stand.
THE CITY SHOULD GROW UPWARDS.
Our capital was reconstructed at all times. When Stalin was
The slogan is put forward: "we Will transform meshchansko-popovsky Kiev in
Industrial capital of socialist Ukraine! ", razmahi
"Reorganisations" have surpassed all reasonable limits. Only with 1934 on 1937
Year it has been destroyed more than 260 monuments of history and architecture. Not
The hand of architect Karakisa has trembled to destroy the Georgievsky cathedral,
Constructed by Yaroslav Wise and to build the co-operative house
For red commanders. Instead of the oldest in Kiev Nikolsky
Monastery there was a co-operative society for workers Sovnarkoma. Hotels
"Kiev" (replaced fire kalanchu XIX centuries) and "Salute"
(Erected to ruins of a belltower of the Military-Nikolsky monastery) not
Allow to "communicate" to the Sofia and Lavrsky belltowers. The list
"Victims" can be continued.
Alas, the habit to put to monuments of architecture has not got rid of a mutilation
Itself and today. Radical kievljane say, that the matter is that -
Simple human vanity. It wanted to this or that
To the architect to immortalise the name, means, it is necessary to build something
Global and it is indispensable - on the Kreschatik. And as in the centre
Capitals there's not an inch of room it is necessary for the sake of new masterpieces
To endow constructed earlier.
-- To be convinced, the centre of Kiev is how much spoilt, there is enough
To rise on a belltower of the Sofia cathedral, - tells Ruslan
Kuharenko, the head of department of protection of monuments of history, culture
And the historical environment of Kiev. - earlier from here on one line were
Gold gate, Georgievsky church, church Sacred are visible
Feodora, a Sofia cathedral, further - desjatinnaja and Andreevsky
Churches. Nowadays this ridge of temples either is taken down, or forced by boxes
Epoch of socialism and modern "vysotkami". Capital
The architectural beau monde, not looking at standards, erects in
Historical part of a city "skyscrapers" - one above another. Them
The motto: "the City should grow upwards! Whether" it is important, that projects of new buildings
Are not always successful?.
Only last year 114 infringements on the different are fixed
City building sites where jobs without the corresponding were spent
Coordination, - continues Ruslan Ivanovich. - Most of all
Self-systems in Starokievsky (39) and Podolsk (46) areas.
To forbid them practically it is not possible: first, permissions on
Building stand out Glavkievarhitekturoj (and there with someone
To consult have not got used - "as I want, so a solution and I bang").
Secondly, our management does not have sufficient powers, that
To stop a disgrace, and the provided penal sanctions
Are ineffective - they are inadequate to the losses, brought to a city
Owing to a damage to history monuments.
VICTIMS.
Somehow one of leading architects of capital has declared to colleagues: "That
You rush with this style of XIX century, it is necessary to build something
Is more modern ". Also has begun: on Krasnoarmejsky, 62 have erected a building,
On three floors (!) above the next houses and three times massivnee, than
The same Theatre of light opera, and on colour it discords with associates
Structures. The house in the street Pushkin, 26/8 - the best example of that,
As it is impossible to build. Kievljane should notice occurrence
The same rectangles with "tummy" as that on
Street Sofia, 1п . The house Б 9 in the same street is designed without taking into account
The surrounding historical environment. On street Horiva, 55 without the coordination
The project the site in reserve territory "Ancient Kiev" is built up.
The house on Vladimir, 12 on three floors above, than next
Houses-monuments. The list, besides, can be continued.
And small infringements so many that the newspaper area will not suffice them
To describe: autocratic painting of facades, completion of balconies, loggias,
Installation of show-windows, doors which are not combined with the general stylistics
At home... In general, Kiev on the sly loses the historical face and
Turns, according to experts, in "Manhattan on Dnepr". Even
At 23rd session of UNESCO negative responses about Ukraine, as have sounded
About the country which does not adhere to the international Convention on
To protection cultural-historical values is concerned before
In total to errors of the Kiev architects in a historical part of a city.
LET'S WAVE WITH FISTS?.
It seems, time has come to undertake a head. Protection department
Monuments of history, culture and the historical environment has brought on
Consideration Kiev gorgosadministratsii a number of offers on
To maintenance of the state control over protection and use
Monuments. In particular it is offered to define a collecting order
Means for the found out infringements and procedure of compensation to monuments
The put damage and also to oblige Glavkievarhitekturu not
To accept to consideration civil-engineering designs, reorganisations,
Completions and extensions in a historical part of Kiev without
Town-planning researches and conclusions of Management of protection of monuments.
By the way, last week Kiev city a head Alexander
Omelchenko (according to unian), has sharply scarified some projects
New buildings in the central part of capital also has informed, that in Kiev will be
Competition on replacement of posts of the main architect is declared
City and its assistants. It is necessary to hope only, that the futures
Masters of town-planning really, instead of in the glory, will change
Kiev to the best.
