About the place
Along Metallurgists Avenue are four buildings that are an example of an architectural and social phenomenon of the past century. They embody the proletarian idea of a communal way of life and are a manifestation of the Soviet avant-garde movement, designed by the architect Olga Yafa.
The outer buildings in the row are simpler with rectangular facades adorned with blocks of Arctic tuff, reminiscent of the machine hall of the Dnipro hydroelectric power station. The curved volumes of the stair windows resemble thermometers. The central buildings have a complex form, forming a square with a central avenue.
The buildings were designed with one- and two-room apartments with shared kitchens, showers, and toilets. Although the buildings have undergone significant reconstruction, they remain valuable monuments of architecture and urban planning.
