Bristol apartments in Volga town



A new Russian Bristol, this time a couple of apartments in Tolyatti, with an addresss that’s part of its name: Bristol Apartments at Ordzhinikidze 15. Tolyatti is on the Volga river around a thousand km east of Moscow. Although it has Russia's largest car manufacturer, AvtoVAZ (Lada), it has been named as the country’s poorest city. It sounds an unhealthy place for an investigative journalist to be working.
