Moscow is a densely populated metropolis, but it still has many neglected areas that represent potential for creating a high-quality urban environment. Several such areas were improved last year. I wrote more about the work in my blog Sergei Sobyanin.
"Often, literally just a stone's throw from residential areas, there's the opportunity to create fully-fledged infrastructure for leisure and an active lifestyle: modern playgrounds and sports fields, walking trails, and areas for play and exercise for four-legged friends. And we actively take advantage of these opportunities," the Moscow Mayor wrote.
A sports complex has been created on Nizhnyaya Khokhlovka Street in the Nizhegorodsky District on the site of a former vacant lot: streetball and padel tennis courts, a skate park, and playgrounds with mini-climbing walls, obstacle courses, and trampolines.
Along the railway tracks on Ketcherska Street in Veshnyaki, you can now enjoy a variety of sports. In the summer, you can play soccer, basketball, and table tennis, train in skate parks and on pump tracks, and in the winter, you can enjoy a skating rink for hockey players and anyone who enjoys skating. A "Russian Ninja" complex has also been installed there.
On 1st Sestroretskaya Street in the Molzhaninovsky District, a vacant area near the Perspektiva School has been transformed. Specialists have created a modern skate park, landscaped the area around the pond, and laid convenient paths to public transportation stops.
In Northern Butovo, an unkempt area of nearly 19 hectares in the Butovsky Forest Park has been transformed into a modern sports park. It now offers everything for active or relaxing recreation: volleyball, basketball, soccer, tennis, and workout courts, as well as strength training equipment for adults, as well as the "Russian Ninja" complex.
A play area with eco-playgrounds, benches, and swings was created for children. A special area for active play with pets was also created.
The transformation of previously unused areas is a good example of systematic efforts to improve the quality of life in the capital. New sports clusters, skate parks, play areas, and promenades are becoming an integral part of Muscovites' daily lives.
The work is being carried out within the framework of a national project Infrastructure for LifeMore information about Russia's national projects and the capital's contribution can be found atspecial page.
