Palats Sportu (Kyiv Metro)
Palats Sportu (Kyiv Metro)

Palats Sportu (Ukrainian: Палац Спорту, (listen)) is a station on the Syretsko-Pecherska Line of the Kyiv Metro. Opened on 31 December 1989 as part of the first stage of the line, it formed third and (so far) last transfer point of the system. The station is named after Kyiv's central Sports Palace, and as a result, its architectural layout (work of architects A.Krushinsky and N.Aleshkin) follows carefully on the theme. Unlike other pylon-trivault stations, Palats Sportu features a non-circular shape of the central hall's ceiling. Made of white plastic panels, this contrasts with the darker color gamma of the rest of the station, and also blends carefully with the lighting elements that are suspended from the apex, just like in a large sport complex. As mentioned earlier, the remaining of the station is made of darker tones, that include dark brown metal planes for the pylon sides facing the halls and green marble for the internal pylon walls. The platform halls' color gamma is opposite to the central one, which consists of dark plastic planes that cover the ceiling, with one line of fluorescent lighting element running the length of the hall. Also unlike the central hall, the white marbled walls, instead of being horizontal, are curved, and continue the vault all the way to the track level. The floor is covered with neutral brown marble. Other unique features of the station include the sound isolation of one hall to another, making it impossible to hear an incoming train even from the central hall, this was done specifically as the station formed Kyiv's third transfer point with Ploscha Lva Tolstoho of the Obolonsko–Teremkivska Line, in an attempt not to disorientate the passengers. The station's vestibule is located on the Sportyvna square, next to the complex itself. During mass celebrations and major sporting events (e.g. the 2005 edition of the Eurovision Song Contest and an international ice hockey tournament in 2017, which took place inside the palace), the station's exits and entrances to the surface are closed, and it functions solely as a transfer point to avoid large crowds.

Parus Business Centre

The Parus Business Centre (Ukrainian: Бізнес Центр «Парус») is a 34-story class-A office building in Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine. It is located at the very centre of the city, between Mechnikova St. and Lesi Ukrainky Blvd. (municipal address: 2, Mechnikova St.).At its opening in 2007 the Parus Business Centre was the highest building it the country, as of 2018 it remains the third highest. Construction of the building began in 2004, and ended in February 2007. Apart from its main office use 50,400 m2 (543,000 sq ft), the property features some 2,400 m2 (26,000 sq ft) of retail space and around 2,700 m2 (29,000 sq ft) of cafes and restaurants and a 4-story underground parking garage with a capacity for 300 cars.While still on the construction stage, the project was also known as "Elsburg Plaza" (Ukrainian: «Ельсбург Плаза»), but was later renamed to "Parus" (literally translated as "sail") ostensibly because of building's oval-like shape, resembling sail of a ship.In July 2008, Kontrakty, Ukrainian business weekly, rated top 10 most expensive offices in Kyiv. Parus was top of the chart in terms of annual rental income, which stood at some $50 million.Major tenants at Parus include McKinsey & Company, Concorde Capital, an investment bank; TNK-BP, an oil company; Olimp, Ukrainian spirits company; Delin Development, a real estate development company; Interpipe, steel pipes producer and others. Colliers International, a commercial real estate services company, was an exclusive leasing agent for Parus. Parus was developed and is owned by "Mandaryn Plaza Ltd." (Ukrainian: ЗАТ «Мандарин Плаза»), a joint-stock company, prominent for its homonymous high-end shopping center in the center of Kyiv. From 2007 to 2016 the building was owned by Ukrainian businessman, Dmytro Firtash.
