The city has lost "Intourist", yet not having constructed.
The city has lost "Intourist", yet not having constructed.
Whether WILL transfer a building of "Intourist" with Tver somewhere or
Will simply take down, till now it is not clear. Despite wishes of the mayor
To save the very first hotel in Moscow for foreigners and to find
Technical possibility of carrying over, the decision it is not accepted. Not so
Easier to find a place in which the skyscraper 70 would be entered. Except
That, the building is in the unsuitable form for moving: the bearing
Designs from iron have suffered because of corrosion, aluminium
Simply in very bad status.
That will construct on the "Intourist" place, too it is not clear. The project
Affirmed any more once (and everyone - it is definitive).
Instead of a 22-storeyed three-stars box discording with
Building Manezhnoj of the area, wished to complete uniform with
"Natsionalem" a complex. Then there was a project 12-storeyed
"Hilton". Now, on hearings, have stopped on 7-9-я я п п?п?п?п a building
With a small amount of numbers - 289. One of the reasons of the constant
Reduction of the project that "Intourist" was badly filled even in
The best times. But it is clear, that if the investor was
At once, there would be no necessity to cut down the project.
For the first time about a pulling down have started talking in 1991 when have fallen
Overlappings on the top floors. The government of Moscow intended
To understand with a building for own money. But before crisis 1998
Business is not has reached a pulling down. Then there was a competition and many plans on
To treasury replenishment for the bill investorskih money. The Finnish investors
Were going to to work without "live" money, they offered a city a share
- 30 % of actions of new hotel. Frenchmen did not wish to be spent on
Infrastructure creation: for new "Intourist" it is necessary
Transformer substation which except hotel served
Also other city objects.
Perhaps, only Englishmen have approached on all parametres. They
Are going to to spend for the project 130 mln. dollars the City will receive 7
Mln. dollars before the beginning of building and 8 million after the termination, not
Considering taxes - on 3,5 mln. dollars in a year. All is good, yes...
Company "SVL" which undertakes building, name firm
One transaction because it is created specially under this project.
Its known company in the world "Rathbone Brothers" has founded,
Which owns hotels in England and France. But, speak, it
Has entrusted building to the third parties behind which ostensibly costs
Joseph Kobzon's firm "Moskovit". Official comments on this
Subject more than are poor and in different variations repeat thought, that
Competition is won fairly that is why questions are inappropriate.
Really, what bad in well organised competition?
Only for the inquiry: the project can change, and its conditions
Realisations already are not present: on all of 100 % the new hotel will be
To belong to the investor.
