Architectural discoveries, the more you read about people behind the human-made beauties, the more you want to go for some short-term expeditions, even in the cities, you think you know. Look, you have missed that one building or you have passed by it so many times, never stopping to admire its beauty.
Sunday idea was on, going to see the legendary building.

Built in 1975 and not properly taken care of, it looks for its age+. 

Architects: Avraam Miletskyi, Ada Rybachuk, Volodymyr Melnychenko.

Although seen as one of the iconic buildings of modernism, its wiki page is rather short. Mentioning a few controversies around the build and its life after the opening, it leaves more questions than answers. 

As buildings of that era are not yet appreciated by the vast majority, and as more iconic buildings disappear than appear these days, it's important to keep track of those still existing, finding time to visit or pause for a few minutes instead of just passing by.
