Commieblocks will be built as long as majority are not rich enough to buy separate houses. But many would still prefer to live in the city, so some sort of commieblocks will always be built.

KYIV | Київ



Considering how most of you probably don't visit Ukrainian section, I thought I'd keep you up to date with what is going on in Kyiv. Unless this is now strictly a Balkan forum and you don't give a .. food remains.. :D

So I'll see how interested you are.

I guess I'll start with several "approved" and "under constructions"

Approved
101 floors
Height not certain, but possibly around 470 meters.
Investors are now making last changes as to what they want on different floors. Process of clearing the area for it has begun. Final design is said to have less glass than the rendering below.


Under construction
Elsburg office tower. 136 meters high.


Pic by Ukrainian member "Max"


This is a maquette of an first business cluster area that is going up. You can see Elsburg here, the tower in front of it is now Under Construction as well, but we don't have any other renderings. Its going to be around the same height as Elsburg.


3 residential towers, each of 35 floors, 119 meters. Under construction.


On the left:


Six residential towers, 35 floors, 138 meters high. Under construction.


2.19.06


More later... :runaway: :cheers:

I'm never too far from the Ukrainian section ;)
So the Elsburg plaza is 136m, eh? First it was 140, then it went to 120, either way, it looks really tall in its location.
Otherwise I'm interested in seeing how the "trizub" (or however you spell it in Ukrainian) does, it would be the tallest in Europe if built, but somehow I'm still not convinced it will go through. Even if they are clearing the area, I'm never too sure about construction in EE countries :D
 
#36 ·
Yes, Elsburg's height was not certain but now Max is sure that its 136. I'll post the rendering of the tower near it (forming the cluster ) which will be like 130-140m as well, as soon as we find it...

As to the super tall, you're right, there are always scams and scandals :D so we'll see how it goes, but right now it involves the most known architect and have been approved on all official meetings. We'll have one of the forumers go to that location and see what's going on there. But right now the talks are now getting more and more specific, like construction of a glass bridge across the highway from the subway station to have direct access to the sksycraper.
 
#38 ·
lol, as I was posting a new approved and possibly already u/c came out


It's about 30 floors, no details yet.

Thats two more than you get in Ukraine forum.
Besides , Ukraine is not in EE;)
We never said that Ukraine is not EE. If anyone, I'm the most pro-EE person out here.

We needed our own section for several reasons. Besides you're wrong, we have recently started getting new members every week.

Pavlo said:
Amazing. 2 replies for 5 projects bigger than anything on EE. Just amazing.
i think thats because we've been used to this kind of news coming from Ukraine. imo they're nothing grand for Ukraine. :)

[Kyiv Construction Map]



Well these are mainly residentials U/C. However these are by far not ALL that are U/C. There are residentials which are 25/26/27/28 floors which even we don't know about. They're just what I call 'private' projects. Plus, the map does not include all major projects previously posted. The map is just 50% of what is under construction.

That's because they're all too busy posting about every little house getting built all over Bosnia. It's very important, you know :D
Sometimes I visit you guys here and I'm honestly not sure what you're discussing, I find pictures of dogs, horses, pushing carts, 2 story houses etc. :D

Pavlo, incredible work
 
#51 ·
Four residential-mix-use towers of 40, 36, 36 and 36 floors, as well as 12 floorers nearby have been approved





Me and Pavlo had conducted an independent research based on the information we have and came ап with these numbers: There are 20 buildings under construction of higher than 30 floors each, in Kyiv alone.
