Old and New Kiev
Old and New Kiev
Image by Roads Less Traveled Photography
The three main buildings in this picture are a business center, a hospital, and a residential building. Guess which one is which?
In a city that certainly could use some new hospitals, you won’t see a new hospital in this picture. The new building is a business center. Guess I didn’t have to tell you that. The economy in Kiev is still holding up somewhat, mostly because it’s a low cost city compared to most of Western Europe and the USA. Meaning, labor costs are low, meaning outsourced work from the previously mentioned places. If they manage to get this building half occupied in the next five years, outsourcing would be why. The residential building is the one in the middle of the other two, on the right, and the one in the foreground is the hospital.
The hospital is an honest to goodness, Soviet era hospital. Drab, showing it’s age, and maintained and supplied with the few kopecks thrown it’s way. Inside, 75% of the lights are turned off to economize. But I guess Kiev needed this business center (and 100 other new ones like this) more than it needs a few new or rebuilt hospitals.
