Workers remove aluminum tiles from the facade of a bus station building in Kaliningrad. The newspaper "Komsomolskaya Pravda - Kaliningrad" writes about this.

“Aluminum panels are removed and stored behind a fence. Pieces of plaster are lying near the building, but there are no workers on the scaffolding,” local historian Yevgeny Mosienko told the publication.

The aluminum panels are removed to be cleaned, the station administration explained to journalists and promised to return them to their place.

The Ministry of Infrastructure Development of the Kaliningrad Region, which is in charge of the building, promised the publication later to give information about the ongoing work.

The building of the bus station on Zheleznodorozhnaya Street was built in 1971 in the style of Soviet modernism, designed by Leningrad architects. The cosmic appearance of the building was given by voluminous aluminum plates. A few years ago, activists suggested that the station building be included in the list of protected cultural heritage sites, but they were not heard.

Earlier, RBC Kaliningrad wrote that buses from Kaliningrad continue to operate to Lithuania, Latvia, Poland and Germany.
