Caring for cultural heritage is one of the most important areas of work for municipal services. Visitors to the forum site "Territory of the Future. Moscow 2030" can try themselves in the role of utility workers in the Horseshoe zone in the Luzhniki Olympic Complex. Here, a model of the Stone Flower fountain has been installed for guests, which can be cleaned with a jet of water under pressure.
Historical and cultural monuments in Moscow are maintained in proper condition with special care. Specialists not only carefully monitor the cleanliness of the objects, but also carry out large-scale work to preserve and restore them.
Thus, fountains in the capital are constantly maintained. Twice a year, before the start of the season and after its completion, city workers thoroughly wash the structures, and during the entire period of their operation, they carry out regular cleaning. In the off-season, specialists also check the functionality of the structures and repair them if necessary.
In 2018–2019, all 14 fountains of the Central Alley were restored at VDNKh, as well as three fountains — cultural heritage sites, including the Stone Flower, a model of which is presented at the forum. This was the first comprehensive restoration for the structures in more than 60 years. Specialists returned them to their historical appearance and completely updated the engineering systems.
The forum "Territory of the Future. Moscow 2030" on September 10 at 18:00 will also feature a lecture by the Museum of Moscow Municipal Economy "What do Moscow fountains hide?". Listeners will be able to learn about the history of Moscow fountains – from the first structures in the estates of Peter the Great to modern light and music complexes. Visitors will be told facts about the fountains of VDNKh, the oldest fountain in Moscow and other fountains in the capital, as well as about the work of specialists who take care of these structures throughout the year.
On the same day at 19:00, there will be a lecture "And I walk, I walk on the bridge", dedicated to the history of bridge construction in Moscow from ancient times to the present day and their maintenance. Since 2011, each road and bridge facility has undergone various types of repairs. Among them are cultural heritage sites of regional significance – the Bolshoy Moskvoretsky and Bolshoy Kamenny bridges. Their major repairs in 2018-2021 were carried out by specialists of the State Budgetary Institution "Gormst" for the first time since their construction – in 80 years.
And at the Moscow Capital Repairs Fund station, guests will try themselves in the role of restorers of cultural heritage sites. They will be able to work with miniature sculptures of chimeras located on the apartment building of the Rossiya insurance company on Sretensky Boulevard, and learn more about the restoration of residential buildings – cultural heritage sites. Visitors will cover the plaster figures with gold leaf and will be able to take the finished work home with them.
Since 2020, specialists from the capital's Capital Repair Fund have restored more than 30 apartment buildings – architectural monuments. Each project is individual, with its own subtleties and details, which the craftsmen carefully restore.
"Territory of the Future. Moscow 2030"— is an opportunity to get acquainted with the future on a city-wide scale by trying out its technologies that are already being used in the capital today. Children and adults will be able to communicate with robots and artificial intelligence, watch modern unmanned transport in action, play on technologically advanced sports grounds, study educational, medical and industrial innovations, immerse themselves in VR space and much more.
