Since 2020, five major sports facilities have appeared in the southwest of the capital at the expense of the city budget – an ice palace, a physical education and health and sports complex, as well as a football field. They were built under the "Sport of Moscow" program. This was reported by the head of the capital's Department of Civil Construction Alexey Alexandrov.

"Special attention is paid to the development of sports infrastructure in the capital, which contributes to the creation of a comfortable and accessible environment for sports. New facilities are built taking into account modern standards and technologies, attracting citizens to lead an active lifestyle. At the same time, it is important that all of them have convenient transport accessibility. Over the past five years, large facilities have appeared in four districts in the southwest of the capital. The last of them, the Maksimum sports complex, opened recently on Ostafyevskaya Street. The new facility has become part of the sports cluster of the Yuzhnoye Butovo district. The two-story sports complex with a total area of over 8.7 thousand square meters can accommodate about two thousand people per day and is adapted for visits by people with limited mobility. In addition to the general physical training hall, it is equipped with two swimming pools and an ice rink," said Alexey Alexandrov.

Earlier about the opening sports complex "Maximum" Sergei Sobyanin reported.

In 2021, a sports and recreation complex was built on Gubkin Street in the Gagarinsky District, which today operates as part of the Sambo-70 sports and education center Department of Sports of the City of Moscow. The four-story sports complex with a total area of 4.8 thousand square meters is designed for artistic gymnastics. The building houses a weight room and a choreography room, a gymnastics room with modern equipment and stands for 100 spectators, a recreation area for athletes, a classroom, locker rooms, as well as coaching, medical, massage rooms and a buffet.

In 2022, a football field measuring 105 by 68 meters was built in Yasenevo. It is located in a residential area on Yasnogorskaya Street. Stands for 498 seats were built for spectators, including a sector for people with disabilities, and seats were equipped for the coaching staff and reserve players. In addition, a two-story administrative and utility building appeared here with changing rooms for athletes, rooms for coaches and referees, a medical office, and a classroom for theoretical classes. The football field is suitable for training and holding competitions at the city and interregional level. Thanks to modern heating and lighting systems, it operates all year round. Artificial turf made of synthetic grass minimizes the risk of injury and allows games to be held in any weather conditions.

In addition, in 2023, an ice palace was built in Yasenevo — the Eteri Tutberidze Figure Skating Center. The concept of the sports facility on Novoyasenevsky Prospekt was developed jointly with the Honored Coach of Russia Eteri Tutberidze. The building, with an area of 21.3 thousand square meters, hosts training and competitions in figure skating, hockey, and ice shows. Public skating is organized here for amateur athletes.

In 2023, the Kachalovsky sports complex was built in the Severnoye Butovo district on Dmitry Donskoy Boulevard. Its total area is 5.8 thousand square meters. Residents of nearby neighborhoods can play sports in the immediate vicinity of their home. The sports complex has a multi-purpose hall for game sports and a gym. In addition, there are two swimming pools: a 25-meter eight-lane pool and a 10-meter swimming pool for children aged seven to 10 years. The two-story building is decorated in a modern style: the facades are faced with fiber cement and porcelain stoneware slabs with a smooth and textured surface that imitate natural finishing materials.
