Our beloved City Hall keeps shouting in every interview about the shortage of kindergartens in Moscow. That’s why anyone who repurposes or demolishes them is supposedly going to be punished and prosecuted. And on top of that, a special program has been announced to build one hundred new kindergartens across the city. The program is a point of pride for the government, but it’s not going very well. There are no vacant sites. That’s the theory. Now here’s the reality: An initiative group from Kosygin Street came to a meeting. **The following are slated for demolition in the neighborhood: a kindergarten, a clinic, and a maternity hospital. **The land that is freed up will be developed for housing by the company KROST. The waiting time to get a child into a kindergarten in the area is 2 years.
