The Moscow branch of the Just Russia party has awarded the title of "Most Horrible Entrance" to a residential building at 5 Ulitsa Kominterna in the city's Babushkinsky district, based on a photograph submitted by a user named Mikhail, who won an iPad for his entry, Lenta.ru reported.
The building was chosen from over 500 entries nominated for the "honor" on the party's чистыйподъезд.рф web site.
Babushkinsky placed fourth among the city's worst neighborhoods in a separate poll taken on the web site. That survey was led by the outlying Veshnyaki and Losinoostrovsky districts.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
