10-storeyed business-centre with parking to be built opposite St.Sophia of Kiev, – What shall we do?
A new 6-10-storeyed business-shoping or business-hotel centre with a three-level underground parking is supposed to be built instead of the two-storeyed housein 20/21 Sofiyskaya Street.
It was became clear from the documents published by civil activist Anatoliy Frolov on his Facebook page, writes the outlet.
"It is going to be the highest object on St. Sophia Square, besides the Cathedral. What shall we do?", writes the activist.
"This is just trash, can’t wrap my head around it,” commented the project activist Zorian Kis on his Facebook page.
