Old Skyline, New Skyline: How Modern Buildings Changed Minsk

Do you remember how the Trinity suburb looked like before a giant 23-storey living complex was built? Do you remember the old central bus station?

I started thinking about it after I heard a chat of two youths in metro. One of them arrived in Minsk for the first time in last five years: after graduation, he left the town from the old bus station.

The young man was describing his impressions of Minsk’s new skyline. If the new Central bus station building was humbly praised, “they’ve built some s...t blotting half the sky, ” was said about the tasteless block of flats built in the very heart of the city by Jury Chyzh, one of Belarusian tycoons called “Lukashenka’s wallets.”

So let us take a look at the new city skyline and compare it to the old one.
