Exiting Kengarags


Dole shopping centre (on the left) marks the end of dense urban settlements. After that there is a long stretch of industrial units, garden plots and small households.

- What do you think of this from your hart?

If you think that these four twelve storey commie block “high rises” on the right bank of Daugava in Kengargs are sort of exclusive you might be wrong. The location is excellent though the architecture doesn’t attract the buyers that much because they have drawbacks like no soundproofing, no insulation and windows are half rotten except if owners have saved enough money to replace them and improve energy efficiency there. The photo was taken from drainpipe stretching some 10 meters into the water. There was no stench, so I guess the pipe was not a sewerage outlet.
