Belvedere - one of the business cards of Odessa - "restoration" threatens to turn into a replica. Odessites are concerned about why, in place of the restoration of the monument,.

Activist Sergei Sarafanyuk wrote on the page "My House Odessa" in Facebook: "Instead of wooden beams and articulated joints. Odessa-2018. Now, this composition of the Ministry of Culture and "restorers" calls a restoration of the monument of national importance a replica ".

Instead of wooden beams and hinged joints, reinforced concrete structures are used, the contractor explains this by the high cost and complexity of recreating the original colonnade design.

"Restoration of the century" continues. As Lelik said from the Diamond Hand: "It's not aesthetical, but cheap, reliable and practical!

"I tried to find at least something from that era, but even the rope turned out to be synthetic. Everything is the same as Vorontsov, even better, "writes Odesa resident Yevgeny Sokolsky on his Facebook page.

According to the media, it is still unknown whether the contractor has a permit to carry out works that are conducted by Odessa-Communeecology under the order of the Capital Construction Department of the Odessa City Council.

Question: where is the city council hurrying with another questionable "restoration"?.
