Near the station there will be four shopping and entertainment center, two markets and five supermarkets.
The area near the metro station “Heroes of Dnepr” is gradually becoming a place of accumulation of the Mall. Recall, there is already one and a half years, built a large shopping center above the subway station, and a few days ago on a small vacant lot (next to the house at Heroes of the Dnieper, 30) started the construction of another Mall, is the fourth within a radius of half a kilometer. Journalists tried to find out why so many shopping centers one neighborhood.
Judging by the passport facility, the Heroes of the Dnieper, 30-b, appears a five-story shopping center with the sign “House of life”. Its total area of 1814 sq. m. it Turns out that next to the station will be four shopping and entertainment center, two markets and five supermarkets! “Last year the territory was surrounded by a fence and has now started construction, although in the past there was a small Parking lot. Alas, the joke “Give TTS in every yard!” — no longer a joke,” says local resident Igor Hunters.
“This happens because in Kiev there is no General Plan of city development, it does not say it, because it is not profitable to developers. Obolon is a special case. Shopping malls there really is a lot. And their owners need to think about how to stay on the market to avoid bankruptcy,” — said the expert of real estate Victor Nesin.
In Obolon district state administration they say that building permits are not given. “We have no one asks, is needed in the area shopping malls or not. Land acquisition is issued by the Kyiv city Council a few years ago, developers received permission to stroyraboty from GASK. We can affect a situation cannot. I can assure you that the area provided for shopping centers by 200% per capita and new here is not necessary” — explains the head of Obolon district state administration Alexander Cybulski.
The municipality does not see a problem with the dominance of the Mall in Obolon. “The land under shopping centers was allocated previously under the old master Plan, the current Kiev government land for construction of commercial real estate not allocated, — has assured us the mayor of Kiev Dmitry Belotserkovets. — I personally do not see this as a problem. New shopping centres, new jobs for residents. With regard to their large number, it is a competition. If they are built so close to each other, the owners must understand that it’s a big risk they will have to compete in the market or shut down”.
