AbstractAbout AuthorsReferences
During several years, there is a trend towards the development of active commercial urban life, which is accompanied by the reconstruction and renovation of existing office, public and commercial facilities and urban spaces. Some objects as a result of new construction have retained only the shell and facades, some have been irretrievably lost. The history of many commercial buildings is directly related to underground construction and the expansion of urban space into the underground level, especially in the city center. The Golitsyn Gallery, Alexander Passage, Central Department Store, Voentorg clearly illustrate this theme. The history of Voentorg on Vozdvizhenka Street is a reflection of the current trend and the result of economic, social, architectural and urban factors and transformations. During the construction of public centers, free space under streets, avenues and squares is actively used, which increases the territory of the city center several times. Manezhny Shopping Center is an example of such underground construction.
