YABLOKO’s leader Sergei Mitrokhin stopped construction works
in the place of destructed architectural heritage in Tishinsky
lane, Moscow. Despite a ban of the Moscow regulator the builders
began excavation works. After arrival of Sergei Mitrokhin
the workers disappeared.
The building at Bolshoi Tishinsky 30/44, building 1, was
built in the early 20th century by architect Nirnzeye and
was almost completely destroyed in 2008. Under a pretext of
renovation the construction company left only a corner wall
of the building. The residents of the area jointly with the
YABLOKO party have been fighting against construction of a
new building with a multi-level underground garage on the
site of the destructed monument of architecture for two years.
In early May 2010, head of the Moscow construction complex
Vladimir Resin said that the contract with the developer -
the Phobos company – was dissolved.
“After this statement the entire vertical of power in Moscow
confirmed that the contract was being terminated. However,
the builders somehow got a permit and have continued the excavation
works for the new building,” Mitrokhin said.
The district authorities of the Central District of Moscow
also opposed the construction. This morning Galina Boryatinskaya,
head of the Presnya district, came to the site. She issued
an order to stop the construction works. After which the workers
and their supervisor were detained by the police, however,
when they were released, they continued the excavation works.
Arriving to the site Sergei Mitrokhin stopped the excavator.
At present local residents are filling up the pit with earth
with the spades left by the workers.
"We will closely monitor the developments so that to
prevent the continuation of construction works", Mitrokhin
told to the residents of the neighbouring houses.
