About 10 years ago, he conceived the idea of creating a modern neighborhood on the site of his own poultry farm, "Sibirskaya Gubernia." But the neighborhood wasn't just any neighborhood; it was modeled after a true Italian Venice—even the Rialto Bridge is paved here. The only problem was that most of the buildings were converted from the factory's production facilities: they were simply paneled and decorated (!) with foam.

An interesting structure and beautifully presented! A few more details, if possible ))"Siberian Venice" is a bold project by Krasnoyarsk businessman Alexey Podsokhin, who once owned the ALPI chain. About 10 years ago, he conceived the idea of creating a modern neighborhood on the site of his own poultry farm, "Sibirskaya Gubernia." But the neighborhood wasn't just any neighborhood; it was modeled after a true Italian Venice—even the Rialto Bridge is laid out here. The only problem was that most of the buildings were converted from the factory's production facilities: they were simply paneled and decorated (!) with foam.

Great shot, Marina! It's interesting that Krasnoyarsk has Venetian influences! And the fact that it's abandoned is a shame...I agree, Andrey.

Beautiful structure! It's a shame it's abandoned.I agree, and it's a shame about the project itself. I tried to show through the photos what it would have looked like.
