The initiator of the protests against the closure of the Petrovka market in the capital, the founder of the public organization #SavePetrovka, the deputy of the Kyiv City Council Vladislav Trubitsyn says that the market has been defended, the mall will be located on the opposite side of the market, and the people of Kiev will only benefit from the future reconstruction of the territory. He stated this in an interview with Evening Kiev..

" In turn, on the opposite side of this market, the developer will build a shopping and entertainment center. It will appear on the site of the household market and the Bookinist store,"

He noted that in an updated form, the reconstruction project assumes that in the Petrovka area there will be not just a book market, but a cultural hub..

“Believe me, the capital will only benefit from this, because no one has yet implemented such projects in Kiev,” Trubitsyn said..

Now the project is going through the stage of coordination of all documents with various authorities..

" I can assume that this will happen before the end of the first half of 2022. As I understand it, this year they plan to start work on the reconstruction of the market,"

The Department of Urban Planning and Architecture of the KSCA has already issued urban planning conditions and restrictions on construction work on the reconstruction of the book market.

" But it's worth it,"

Everything will be done at the expense of the investor-developer. He will also be required to carry out a complete landscaping of the surrounding area..

All sellers are aware of the upcoming market reconstruction, and therefore they have enough time to plan where they will conduct their business during the reconstruction period. The market will be open for a few more months..

When all the documents are finalized and all the nuances of the reconstruction of the Petrovka market are clarified, the project will be presented to the people of Kiev.
