Construction deployed in the immediate vicinity of the famous home of Eleanor Prey - the Post Lane - provoked vivid and sharp public reaction Vladivostok . To discuss the conflict joined museum workers, civil servants, police, developers, citizens and the media.
The first sounded the alarm museum director named ArsenievVictor Shala. In a social network, he wrote: "All boys, the last bastion of pristine old Vladivostok - Postal Lane - died a heroic death. In the face of those who would have thought his pearls - House Eleanor Prey. Inform without pathos and with great sadness. The fact that the Postal lane - reserved portion of Vladivostok on the body - say like as late. And about who this Eleanor Prey (and her home) for the city - such as completely stupid. "
Artists, museum professionals and the public have expressed serious concern over the fate of the complex pre-revolutionary buildings, located in the postal Lane, some of which are cultural sites of regional importance. In their view, building a garage on the site of the dilapidated building at Lane Post, 5/2 not only threatens the safety of a nearby building - houses the well-known American, detailed and vividly described life in Vladivostok in the beginning of the century, Eleanor of Prey, but also distorts the historical image of the heart city.
To save one of the few still existing in the form of authentic attractions in Vladivostok, was published on the Internet an open petition in defense of the home of Eleanor Prey, addressed to the head of Igor Pushkarev. The document is signed by about 300 people.
According to the authors of the appeal, "one symbolic resources that are embedded in this place, is already working on the positioning of Vladivostok in the wide world, its recognition in many parts of the world."
However, in a conversation with a reporter VL.ru developer noted that all buildings Mail alley in question, are in very poor condition, and all of the builders comply with the law.
Founder and Director of the company "Technopark" owner of the building and land at Postal Lane 5/2 Eugene Bondarev: "Let us not confuse the home of Eleanor Prey and my building - two different buildings and addresses. Postal Lane 5/2 - is not the servants wing and what I was accused - not true. This building once was heating unit or boiler room, now it is in transit through the pipe, it is rotten and has been replaced.
I have a very simple position - I am a bona fide purchaser of land and buildings. We spent about 2.5 years for to get permits for its reconstruction. My lawyer had to go through all the circles of "bureaucratic hell", collect all the necessary papers, certificates, approvals in the administration of the city, the region, "architecture", water utilities, the energy, military, and all under the law to issue.
This is not a monument, it it is not at least 20 years. What was in the Soviet Union, I do not know, but after privatization it is in private hands - the first from an individual, then a legal. The fact that all the manipulations monuments to get a lot of permits, cultural conclusions. I would just not buy the object, if it was a monument of architecture. "
While Eugene Bondarev said that residents of neighboring houses, which are now accused of the company, are themselves violators: "Residents at Postal Lane 5 is continuously written statement to cause the administration, the police, the media, claiming that we are illegal activities. But the point is that these citizens live in the same house Eleanor Prey, which really is a listed building, and it made him an illegal unauthorized extension. There can not call in fire and ambulance. At the time, the courts have been on this issue, but nothing has changed. And now the neighbors that they themselves are breaking the law, blame us. Moreover, were the talk that these people offered us to buy their apartments in exchange for favorable treatment in our building. "
Under the project, the building at Post Lane, 5/2 to be built garage - underground part of the order of 260 square meters and above ground - approximately the same area for the needs of "Technopark". Rumors of building stations, car or a house, the company categorically reject.
The night before, on March 29 in the scandalous construction met representatives of the administration, developers and the public, to which officials pledged to investigate the situation. And recognized that the structure is not really an architectural monument and if people think otherwise, they can fight for the appropriation of the object of such status.
