المعنى
A street with little noise
خلفية ثقافية
In Ukrainian cities, 'quiet streets' are often those with 'Stalinka' or 'Austrian' buildings, which have thick walls and high ceilings, making them highly desirable. The area of 'Lypky' in Kyiv is famous for its quiet streets despite being in the very center of the capital, as it is a government district with restricted traffic. Lviv's 'quiet streets' are often paved with cobblestones (brukivka), which actually makes them quite noisy when a car does pass, creating a unique acoustic environment. There is a growing movement to create 'quiet streets' by banning transit traffic in residential courtyards, known as 'dvir bez mashyn' (yard without cars).
