VLADIVOSTOK, RUSSIA: Passenger ship terminal

A viaduct leads us from the Railway terminal to the Passenger ship terminal. In the early 1860s the “Aleut” schooner station was located at the place. The schooner crew cut an opening to the new stone wharf at the Zolotoy rog (Golden Horn) bay. The opening had became Aleutskaya street by the end of XIX century. The first building of the passenger ship terminal was also situated there. But that building was pulled down in 1959. Architects from “Morsoyuzproekt” institute used the old walls to construct a conceptually different building – a glazed terrestrial seaward liner.
