Each Soviet
Republic had her own leading “kolkhoz” or “sovkhoz”. There was one such
facility in Latvia as well. Not far from Riga there was a “sovkhoz” called
Adaji. By that remote time standards it was seating on a huge pile of cash.
That partially triggered a management decision to build a new green house
complex complete with a new boiler house. Moreover, they aspired not only to
have a Boiler house,a typical soviet style
structure one could see here and there, but also to have one that could be a visual element of the
whole facility “skyline”, a dominant in the open field…
Here you may see where
I arrived to meet their expectations. For that period, this was really an
unusual structure. But I have to tell you that construction quality was awful
and that is why I decided to take this picture from a distance…
