North River Terminal in Moscow. / Северный речной вокзал в Москве. #architecturalphotography

s180725-201.JPG

A river cruise along the Volga to Plyos started from the Northern River Station in Moscow. I was there for the first time. From afar we saw a tower with a spire. While our taxi drove closer, we saw all the details of the beautiful station building. But when we were close, we regretfully found out what a bad condition the building is. Речной круиз по Волге до Плёса отправлялся с Северного речного вокзала в Москве. Я была там впервые. Ещё издали мы увидели башню со шпилем. Пока подъезжали, мы видели всё подробнее красивое здание вокзала. Но, когда оказались близко, с огорчением обнаружили, в каком плохом состоянии находится здание.
However, the fence and the works carried out there inspire hope for an improvement in the situation. Однако ограждение и ведущиеся там работы вселяют надежду на улучшение ситуации.
This sample of the so-called "Stalinist Empire style" began to build in 1933. Architects Alexey Rukhlyadev and Vladimir Krynsky. Silhouette of the building resembles a huge three-deck steamer with a pipe in the middle. As it should be, for this style, there are so many beautiful details that are interesting to consider: columns, mosaics, sculptures, anchors. The mechanism of chimes for the tower of the station was taken from the Resurrection Cathedral of Volokolamsk. At the top is a star, which was originally on the Spassky Tower of the Moscow Kremlin. Ruby stars were installed on the Kremlin towers, and one of the old star served as a decoration for the river station. Этот образец так называемого «сталинского ампира» начали строить в 1933 году. Архитекторы Алексей Рухлядев и Владимир Кринский. Силуэтом здание напоминает огромный трёхпалубный пароход с трубой посередине. Как и положено, для этого стиля, имеется очень много красивых деталей, которые интересно рассматривать: колонны, мозаики, скульптуры, якоря. Механизм курантов для башни вокзала был взят из Воскресенского собора города Волоколамска. На верхушке – звезда, которая вначале была на Спасской башне Московского кремля. На кремлевские башни установили рубиновые звезды, а одна из прежних послужила украшению речного вокзала.
The Moscow North River Terminal became a model for a number of river stations of that time in other cities. Московский вокзал стал образцом для ряда вокзалов того времени в других городах.
As I have read, the restoration of the river station is to be completely completed in 3 years. Как я прочитала, полностью закончить реставрацию речного вокзала планируют через 3 года.
