Around the Prutkov Pond in St. Petersburg destroyed all the trees

Readers and correspondent "Papers" drew attention to the fact that all trees were cut down around the Prutkov Pond, which is located on Kazan Street.

It is unknown who cut down the trees and why. On the website of the improvement committee there are no published wax tickets issued for work on this site, I checked the “paper” . There are also no information shields around the site, our correspondent reports.

The former owner of the site is also unknown what is happening there.

However, the “paper” found on the website of the public cadastral map that in January 2023 the appointment of the site was transferred to the zone for placing objects of preschool and school education.

The “Paper” sent requests to the improvement committee, the Committee on Urban Project and Architecture, as well as the investment committee, but at the time of publication the news did not receive a response.

What you need to know . Once upon a time there was a test chamber in this place, with which the legend of Kozma Prutkov was associated. They demolished the hotel into the zero building, but it turned out differently: the company went bankrupt, the work was stopped, and the dug pit was filled with water.

Now the Prutkov Pond - this is how it was nicknamed - overgrown with a young forest, the walls are scribbled graffiti, sections along the fences are littered with garbage. But those few who have visited the secret reservoir have their own story about him.

Read about the pond that hid in front of everyone and seemed to froze in time.
