PALACE WILL DECORATE... 50 TOILETS.
So a museum or hotel?
The MAYOR again reproach with presidential ambitions. This time in
Communications with that he from a historical monument intends
Petrovsky travelling palace to make multistars hotel - the Center
Receptions of the Moscow government. Two years ago Jury Luzhkov
Has addressed to president Yeltsin with the request to give to the capital
Conducting a museum on the Leningrad prospectus, 40. (If remember, it
There were times when many cultural objects only and waited,
That they to itself were taken away"by Moscow.) dragging pity existence
On balance of the Ministry of Defence, a near death palace-museum
Was not against. The president - too. So there was a decree about transfer
Petrovsky palace in the order of the mayor with a restoration condition
All palace complex and the subsequent preservation behind it
The status "a monument of history and culture of the all-Russian value".
To restore on city money and not to earn thus
Cent, "having presented" all Russia? It not on-are Moscow. So has appeared
The project of alteration of a travelling palace in the Center of receptions of the Moscow
The governments (with creation in him of halls for negotiations,
Several numbers for coming honoured guests, the general number
No more than 40 persons, and... 50 toilet rooms) total cost
40-45 mln. dollars About numbers said, that it-de any not lux
With pools. However, as we managed to learn, a payment for days
Residing at them will fluctuate from 2 to 7 thousand dollars, and
Hotel plan to switch on in the list "Best hotels of the world". That
Concerns status preservations "a monument...", this idea
Has turned to assurances of the Moscow government about
Possibility of visiting of a palace simple townspeople and Russians.
Really, to visit a palace-museum-hotel-centre it will be possible
In the afternoon. And for night of a collar will lock. Whether visitors will want to pay
Thousand dollars that in the afternoon not to be put out from windows, and on
To shady avenues to walk at night? We will ask then visitors, if they
Will be. But what for to the mayor one more Center of receptions? A question interesting.
It is possible to assume, that halls on Tver, 13, and New Arbate,
36, began not to suffice. And it is possible to think, that practice to alter
Imperial palaces under museums has found new sounding - to alter
Museums under palaces. Yeltsin, for example, as the president occupies not
Only Faceted chamber in the Kremlin, but also Teremnoj a palace with Gold
Tsarina's chamber in the same place. Only recollect, please, when you
Were in these museums? That once at us became hotel,
It is not known when again becomes a museum.
