Unlike most city stores, the Atmosphere shopping center in Voronezh is not at all popular. What is the reason? It is located in the very center of the city in one of the most passing places. At first glance, everything is perfect. But there is still a problem. Let's find out what it is.
Where is it and how to get there
Address of the Atmosphere shopping center: Voronezh, st. Friedrich Engels, 64A.
The closest public transport stop is Central Market. There passes the only bus number 115. It rarely goes. Therefore, it is better to choose alternative stops and walk.
There are two options:
- to get to the stop "st. Plekhanovskaya ”and go through the center of the“ Chizhov Gallery ”;
- get to the stop “Hotel Brno” and walk along Friedrich Engels street.
In both the first and second cases, the walking time will be no more than 5-10 minutes. This is the most convenient option if someone needs to get to the Atmosphere shopping center in Voronezh.
Using personal transport is not worth it for sure. And that's why:
- Friedrich Engels Street is the center of all city traffic jams. It's just terrible traffic jams. On a site with a length of 200-300 meters, you can stand for about 40 minutes. And this is with luck.
- Atmosfera shopping center in Voronezh does not have its own parking, and it is forbidden to stand along the street. True, this does not bother anyone, because of which the traffic jam becomes even larger.
The car can be parked for a fee at the central market (located opposite) or in the center of the Chizhov Gallery (located 200 meters from the Atmosphere shopping center). Voronezh is famous for the lack of parking spaces, and Friedrich Engels Street is the peak of this problem.
Why can I come here?
Atmosphere shopping center in Voronezh and the shops located here are sites where you don’t want to go at all. On most of the floors are dubious establishments with an incomprehensible target audience.
Firstly, there are many boutiques with clothes. But these are single shops of private entrepreneurs who recently traded on the central market of Voronezh, and the Atmosphere shopping center accepted them after the reorganization of the first.
Network clothing brands are rented in the neighboring center of the Chizhov Gallery, and Atmosphere just remains to rent out premises to people who carry not the most fashionable clothes from Turkey and China.
Secondly, on the ground floor there is a grocery "Magnet". There are almost no queues in the evenings, so you can safely go there for the implementation of the food program after 19:00.
Thirdly, there are a lot of dubious establishments in the form of representative offices and network marketing agencies, as well as esoteric centers.
Why is not popular?
The main problem of the Atmosphere shopping center in Voronezh is, oddly enough, the poor location.
The shopping center opened in the late 2000s, when the city center was densely occupied with other shops. The food sector has occupied a new central market. For clothes, impressions and entertainment, the consumer goes to the neighboring center of the Chizhov Gallery. And this is natural.
While the Atmosphere was under construction for almost 10 years, the fashion for room decoration, the idea of architectural design, and the needs of potential buyers managed to change several times. The shopping center simply cannot compete with powerful neighbors and is forced to rent out premises to the very sad representatives of small businesses.
What will happen next?
It is difficult to predict the development of the mall further. Today we see a half-empty center, which promised to be promising 10 years ago. At a time when all stores were hastily rebuilt to the current realities, Atmosphere only caught up with them and tried to finish many years of construction. Maybe the city will get another frozen object, or maybe the founders will decide on a reorganization. All this we have yet to learn. Perhaps something will change, and the shopping center will gain popularity.
