Ex-Soviet Elite Homes, Now Moscows Wealthiest Area
Jun 12 2011
During the reign off the Soviet Union many powerful government officials, celebrities, engineers and inventors lived in this region. After the collapse of the Soviet Union many mansions, properties and even large chunks of land remained - unclaimed. Now this is the area for the famous and rich.
Many houses only get remodels done, and the architecture remained (not like there was anything wrong), and many got torn down and new styled mansions got built on these properties. This area is called "Ryblevka", which is in association with the Russian currency Rubles, which basically means this area is made of money.
