We drove from far away on purpose.The last time we were there was about 10 years ago.I was very upset about a small assortment of goods, an old building that looked like a Soviet department store.

At least one normal Soviet building in Kiev built in 1985. Minus 2 stars for the condition of the interior. However, this building had more than one fate, and from 1985 to 1991, there used to be a whole Children's World here, then in 1991 the Darnitsa shopping center was built here as a whole and the premises of the 1st, 3rd and 4th floors were given to the rest of the shops, and the Children's World was left on the 2nd floor, but in a modern format and there was a shopping center The gift box is in this form until 2017. And during the time of the Darnitsa shopping center in the period from 1991 to 2017, there used to be a lot of interesting things here, and this Romanian bathhouse used to be on the 4th floor for 26 years, the Mrav Restaurant was before 26 years, the Photo salon was here before 15 years from 1991 to 2006, the Strizh Gastro market was here before from 1991 to 2017, Auto parts used to be here from 1991 to 2017, the Indigo Chinese Medical Center used to be here from 1991 to 2017, and a second-hand store used to be here from 1991 to 2017 on the 3rd floor. Anyway, there really used to be a good Darnitsa shopping center here. Then in 2018, the owner of the building finally changed and the shopping center was named Varus in Finnish. And to be honest, this is not a good Finnish network, and then they made a meaningless Aquarium instead of a Romanian bathhouse. And all the other organizations and stores after 2017 disappeared instantly after the rebranding. And as for the parking that was normal for 32 years earlier on the side of Darnitsky Boulevard, which was located opposite the green 9th floor building from 1985 to 2017, it used to be a completely normal parking lot in reality. And then when Varus was built here in 2018, they immediately began to build a very bad multi-level inconvenient parking lot on the site of the usual parking lot, which supposedly would be the second stage of the children's world, BUT IN FACT this is not the second stage of the children's world being built, this is a multi-level Finnish type Parking lot, which now spoils the entire Soviet look. Actually, not even half of the building is visible now. And now the parking is normal, and the building looks normal only in the last period, which was from 1985 to 2017. Now there is also a minus star for the Finnish parking, which was very wrongly done in 2018, from the side of Darnitsky Boulevard, which is very inconvenient. So keep that in mind. But I hope that in the future they may return the original layout of the building's surroundings, or they may not. Well, as it is, the appearance has been greatly spoiled by multi-level parking.
