Production Technology
The successful synthesis of architecture, sculpture and painting made the station building an outstanding example of the Stalinist Empire style. The basement of the building is made of polished red granite, the main portals are made of gray-green diorite, combined with the whiteness of the gallery columns, the color composition enhances the expressiveness of the building. The design takes into account the natural slope of the land towards the embankment; the architects used it to create the transition of the building from two floors of the park side to three floors of the quayside.
Design Challenge
The main goal of the restoration was to preserve the original appearance of the river terminal. At the same time, it was decided to use modern technologies and materials in the design of the park's spaces. During the restoration, the greatest attention was drawn to the restoration of the Star, which was located on the spire of the Northern River Terminal.
