New housing under construction at Dmitrovskoe Highway in Moscow as part of the Initiative
The Moscow Urban Renewal Initiative (Russian: Инициатива обновления городов Москвы) is a vast public works program commissioned by Mayor of Moscow Sergei Sobyanin and Russian President Vladimir Putin. It began in 2017 and is expected to be completed in 2032.[1] The plan includes the demolition of 5,171 dilapidated housing structures in Moscow, colloquially known as khrushchevka, their replacement with modern high-rise residential structures, and the relocation of 1.6 million city residents.[2]
The Molzhaninovsky District of the city became the first district of the capital where the Moscow Urban Renewal Initiative was completed. The success of the program has led to its adoption in other cities and it was included in the updated edition of the Town Planning Code of the Russian Federation.[3] The plan has at times been meet with fierce opposition. When completed, it will radically change the physical form and quality of housing in Moscow. The Initiative is being financed through a mix of public and private sector funds.
