  Previous

Canary district is newly conquered area in previously industrial very polluted land between highways, railway tracks and don river. Land was intensivly regenerated and For PanAm games 2015 residential buildings developed here were used as a participants residences.

In the summer 2016 finally public space and parks are finished and turned to public usage.

  These square–like spaces along Front Street are now surpassingly pleasant and appreciated by locals. our favourite restaurant "Tabule" is also located here.

Few large scale public art pieces are making it even more captivating. It is very pedestrian friendly being very close to attractive tourist are of distillery and newly developed large park especially loved by parents with small kids and pets.

One more thing is very surprising. In just few short months this summer [2017] these become "real public space" and added lot of value to the whole new neighbourhood.

  Just check the photos bellow. Am I right?

Second row of photos is added in 2020. There was an opportunity to make an above photo. Wonderful park, visible in the distance, is perfect for celebrations of any kind.

Last two rows of photos were added in 2022. Area is fully developed, most of the apartment buildings are fully occupied, patios are popping up everywhere, threes are maturing Come and visit this area, it highly recommended. We celebrated double birthday [6+1] of our granddaughters here in August of 2022.
