Panorama of the City

<p>A view of Hlybochytska street in the
early twentieth century. The street was laid along the Hlybochytsia
river and connected the road leading to Zhytomyr and Podil (Verkhniy
Val and Nyzhniy Val streets). In the early twentieth century the
first industrial objects started to be built on this street; in 1909
a tram line was laid but due to roughness of the neighbourhood’s
relief and its comparative remoteness from the central part of the
city the street remained sparsely populated.Several small peasant’s
houses can be seen in the picture: traditionally, the Kurenivska and
Lukianivska areas were semi-urbanized farmer’s territories where
factories and working settlements appeared in the late nineteenth
century. Above on the left, there are buildings of the convent of the
Intercession of the Holy Virgin. The relief of Hlybochytska street
was changed more than once; consequently, the Hlybochytsia river was
entirely put into a tube, as it was the case with a lot of other
Kyiv’s small streams.</p><p><i>Olga Martyniuk</i></p>
