PROJECT DETAILS

V. Kostin / V. Marukov: V. Lenin Palace of Sports (today: Kojomkul Sports Palace), ?–1974

  • Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, Show on map
  • #SPO #Central Asia
  • The sports complex consists of several parts of the building: an event hall with 3,000 seats and a stage, a flat, laterally attached entrance area, an administrative wing orthogonal  to the inner courtyard, and behind a swimming pool with a sauna and fitness center. The supporting structure is based on truss girders, which not only create space, but also represent a striking element in the exterior façade design. The construction is considered a type design. Its basics can be found in a multi-purpose gymnasium in Sankt Petersburg and a swimming pool building in Kharkiv.

  • Entrance portals with sports reliefs later removed. In use.
