Neighborhood Ghost

District Vozdvizhenka considered elite residential neighborhoods, which is located in the historic center of Kiev, between the St. Andrew's descent and the street Upper Val. But something went wrong and this gorgeous region has now become a veritable ghost town, where no one wants to live. Built for millionaires. Lyapisto, pretentious.





Yes, something went wrong. Empty.





For brightly painted facades of no one, although the 2008 crisis, it was planned that here in 15 minutes from the center of Kiev, will be willing to settle wealthy people.



Now similar to the set of the film of the life of the last century, the area in ancient times was home to cheese-makers, potters and tanners.



On the streets of the ghost town you can find curious passers-by, the wedding procession. Those and other surrounding pictures of himself on his background, but it's not the inhabitants of the neighborhood.



"We collapsed in 2008, I will not hide," - said the representative of the builder Vozdvizhenka, deputy head of the trust "Kyivmiskbud-1" Taras Zyabkin, but objected to the definition of the "dead city", explaining that the majority of owners sold here apartments live abroad and the end of 2014 there will be all sold out.



One of the famous architects of Kiev George Duhovichny accuses developers in the destruction of the historic city and predicts this area will never be fully occupied.



The architect spoke about the complaints of local residents in the cracks in the walls and leaks in basements and heating failures. People began to leave with Vozdvizhenka.



People who can make money to buy an apartment here, probably, can buy it somewhere else.



In anticipation of demand: the phone number of the estate agent is in a prominent position in the hope that someone from passersby want to rent or buy something here.



Luxury apartments and garages. But there is not a soul, not a single car.
