Reconstruction with the demolition of
"Literature House" on Nevsky Prospekt, where lived and worked the classics of Russian literature, can be dismantled
In St. Petersburg, scandal erupted around the reconstruction of the famous "House of Literature", which is located at the corner of Nevsky Prospekt and the Fontanka River. It was found that the building where they lived Belinsky (from 1842 to 1846.) And Turgenev (1850-1851.) Have visited and where the cream of Russian literature of the last century, will not be rebuilt and fully dismantled. At the site of the building will be a hotel with an underground car park and several shops and two-level shopping facilities.

Representatives of the developer - the company "Avtokombalt" - say that the house is in extremely poor condition and reconstruct it without dismantling the facade is simply impossible. In addition, builders are assured that the writers lived, worked and met not here, but in the house adjacent to the building, located on the Fontanka River.
Gradozaschitniki in response argue that to determine exactly where they lived, and Belinsky, Turgenev, it is impossible - hence both body have historical value. As far as accidents at home, the documents proving that the house can not be reconstructed without dismantling the facade, nobody saw. Activists of the St. Petersburg movement "Living City" are confident that the development company is now in a hurry to break jackhammers wall of the building (after the start of "reconstruction" there has appeared a hole of considerable size), then to the house it was impossible to save.
Committee on State Control, Use and Protection of Monuments of History and Culture (KGIOP) city government strongly opposed the dismantling of the facade of the "literary home." But the company did not listen to the opinion of KGIOP what, strictly speaking, was right: the fact that the house is officially a monument of architecture is not. The building was badly damaged in 1941 and again (with partial use of the basement and part of the walls) rebuilt in 1947-1950. However gradozaschitniki argue that the developer still breaking the law, since the house is located in a protected area (the historic center), where just nothing you can not endure.
Activists of the movement "Living City" and "Arhnadzor" already held the "Literature House" a few shares in the form of the People's Assembly (without posters, flags and any symbols). Next will be held on Saturday, January 15 at 12.00.
