Good morning all,
The above VOA article discusses how a former KGB officer who's now Governor, is remaking Perm from an industrial armaments city to a cultural attraction place.
Note the article's "Taking a page from urban renewal projects in New York and London...".
Please, please, please, Governor Tavarish ("Comrade" in non-Russian lingo), select some better model cities for urban models.
Those who have the wealth to buy (or even rent!) condos in New York City do not need governmental help. Ditto: London.
Warm regards,
Bob
