The area from the power plant to the water utility in Kremenchuk, the first half of the 1970s

Район від електростанції до водоканалу у Кременчуці перша половина 1970-х

Probably few people remember what the site from the power plant to the water utility looked like. It was already a big village. Youth, and the ascent to the mountain was still built up with post-war huts. Only opposite the power plant there were two “decent” buildings: a club, I don’t remember whose, and a little higher, a city public bath, where we went on code days to skip school lessons in the winter. It was then called strike.

I heard that the development of this area was delayed due to bureaucratic carelessness. The thing is that restrictions on registration were not introduced in this area in time (such events are still practiced in cities where the demolition of old buildings or entire areas is planned), and as a result, there were so many registered people in these huts that probably the whole area could not to accommodate everyone, gather them all together. Does anyone remember that in those days, during the demolition of a residential building, apartments were given for each individual family registered in this building?
