More than 330 residents of four old five-story buildings on Plyushcheva and Masterovaya streets have completed paperwork for new apartments under the renovation program. This was reported by Ekaterina Solovieva, Minister of the Moscow Government, Head of the Department of City Property.

"In the second half of May, about 900 Muscovites from houses 8 and 10, buildings 1 and 2 on Plyushcheva Street, and house 5 on Masterovaya Street began a phased relocation to a new residential complex at 6a Perovskaya Street. Now, 90 percent of city residents who have begun relocation have already decided on their choice of housing in the modern residential complex — over 800 people. More than 330 of them have signed contracts with the City Property Department to receive equivalent housing. Apartments are provided to program participants with finished finishing, which will allow new residents to move in immediately without wasting time on repairs," said Ekaterina Solovyova.

The new building is located a five-minute walk from the five-story buildings being resettled — after moving in, residents will be able to use the familiar infrastructure. Over time, shops, service enterprises, or city organizations will appear on the ground floors.

"The residential complex on Perovskaya Street will have 442 apartments with finished, improved finishes. Three of them have been equipped for people with limited mobility and disabilities – they have made wide corridors and doorways, and handrails have been installed in the bathrooms. A children's playground and a sports ground with a safe rubber surface, as well as a recreation area, have been set up near the building. CCTV cameras and lights have been installed in the courtyard. After moving, city residents will be able to maintain their usual way of life, since the five-story buildings being resettled are a five-minute walk from the new building," added the Minister of the Moscow Government, head of the capital's Department of Urban Development Policy.

Vladislav Ovchinsky.

A comprehensive territorial development project (CTD) will be implemented in the Basmanny District of the Central Administrative District of Moscow. Within its framework, six inefficiently used land plots will be reorganized. The corresponding draft resolution posted on the Moscow Government website, said the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Urban Development Policy and Construction Vladimir Efimov.

"The integrated development project for the Basmanny District envisages the reorganization of six sites with an area of 9.53 hectares. Three of them with a total area of 4.23 hectares will be allocated for launch sites for the renovation program. They plan to build more than 110 thousand square meters of residential real estate there. The necessary infrastructure will be built on other sites located nearby, and cultural facilities will be preserved. The operator of the integrated development of the territory will be a city developer. As a result of the project, more than one thousand jobs will be created here," said Vladimir Efimov.

The areas allocated for redevelopment are located at the intersection of Tsentrosoyuzny and Balakirevskiy lanes. This is an area with a rich history and established infrastructure. Nearby there is a school, college, lyceum, exhibition center, pharmacy, medical center, bank branch, coffee shops, restaurants, and the Moscow Drama Theater "Modern" is also located.

"The area of apartments in new buildings will be approximately 64.8 thousand square meters, which will provide new housing for about 2.3 thousand city residents. In addition to construction, the project also provides for the preservation of cultural sites located on two sites. On one of them, where the Moscow Food Plant previously operated, two sculptures were installed in the 70s of the last century: a monument to Lenin and a monument to the workers of the enterprise who died during the Great Patriotic War. They will be put in order and moved to a new location. On the site of the former Moscow Margarine Plant of Centrosoyuz, they will preserve the historical complex of dormitories of the former factory for the production of paper yarn of the merchant S.A. Gorelov, built according to the design of the architect Luntz in the last third of the 19th century," noted the Minister of the Moscow Government, head of the capital's Department of Urban Development Policy

Vladislav Ovchinsky.

Over the past six months, the capital has purchased goods and services from small businesses for 237.5 billion rubles. The most popular categories were medical products, construction materials and educational services, which accounted for more than a third of the total number of contracts concluded. This was reported by Maria Bagreeva, Deputy Mayor of Moscow, Head of the Moscow Department of Economic Policy and Development.

"Small businesses are actively involved in many capital projects. They are engaged in the construction of urban infrastructure facilities, road repairs, landscaping courtyards, ensuring uninterrupted supplies of food and medicine to schools, kindergartens and hospitals. In January-June of this year, Moscow concluded more than 133 thousand contracts with small businesses worth 237.5 billion rubles. Most often, the city purchased medical products and medicines from them: 25 thousand contracts worth over 64 billion rubles were signed for their supply. Construction materials and educational services were also very popular. In these categories, 12 thousand deals worth 7.6 billion rubles and almost 11 thousand contracts worth 1.2 billion rubles were concluded, respectively," said Maria Bagreeva.

The city creates favorable conditions for small businesses to participate in government procurement, including by improving laws on contractual relations. Since 2022, all purchases up to 20 million rubles will be made exclusively among small business entities (SMEs). This expands opportunities for enterprises, allowing them to participate in government tenders and develop their business. The share of small businesses in the capital's economy is also growing thanks to interregional cooperation in procurement.

"Moscow is actively developing cooperation with entrepreneurs from other regions of the country. In particular, over the first six months of this year, over 40 percent of contracts with SMEs were with regional suppliers, and their amount exceeded 73 billion rubles. Most often, representatives of small businesses from the Moscow Region, St. Petersburg, Krasnodar Krai, Tyumen and Nizhny Novgorod Regions participated in the capital's purchases – over 30 thousand contracts worth more than 42 billion rubles were concluded with them," the head of the capital's Department of Competition Policy emphasized.

Losiny Ostrov National Park is a unique natural area in Moscow where rare plant species have been preserved. Orchids are blooming there now. Among them, the green-flowered orchis attracts special attention – a species listed in the Red Book of Moscow under the first category of rarity.

Green-flowered orchis

The green-flowered orchis is protected not only in Moscow, but also at the global level according to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).

The orchid is distinguished by two large basal leaves and a thin stem with delicate whitish-green flowers that have almost no scent. Every year, the plant forms a new tuber to replace the old one. The seeds of this orchid germinate only with the help of a special fungus that lives in the soil, so it can only be found in almost untouched forests with moist soil rich in mineral nutrients – most often in oak and linden groves.

Biologists from the A.N. Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences have discovered four new habitats of this species, which confirms the uniqueness of the ecosystem of the urban part of Losiny Ostrov.

Rare Orchids of Losiny Ostrov

Orchids are considered to be among the most vulnerable plants. Their seeds germinate only in symbiosis with fungi, and adult plants are extremely sensitive to environmental changes. However, in the national park you can find not only the green-flowered orchis, but also other rare species.

Among them is the bifoliate orchis, which belongs to the first category of rarity. This is an orchid with white flowers and two large leaves at the base of the shoot. It can be found on the edges of forests, in light birch forests and in meadows.

The same, first category of rarity includes the marsh helleborine. This is a perennial plant up to 70 centimeters high, which grows on the outskirts of swamps, forest glades and groundwater outlets. The marsh helleborine blooms in June-July and bears fruit in September.

Visitors to the park may encounter the Fuchsian Dactylorhiza, which is in the second category of rarity. This orchid species has pinkish-purple flowers and variegated leaves. It prefers to grow in the rich soils of broad-leaved forests and depends on symbiotic fungi.

Those who are lucky will be able to spot the oval cache orchid, a rather inconspicuous orchid with two oval-shaped leaves and small yellowish-green flowers, as well as the three-cut orchid, the most secretive of Moscow's orchids. To notice the thin, delicate leafless stem of the orchid, you need to have not only knowledge, but also luck. Both of these species also belong to the second category of rarity.

In addition, the common nesting owl (third category of rarity) grows in the capital. This species has no green leaves and receives nutrients from mycorrhizal fungi growing on tree roots. It is found in old forests, especially in linden and oak forests.

Dactylorhiza carnata, also belonging to the third category of rarity, is quite noticeable among the herbs during flowering. It has bright pink flowers, collected in a dense inflorescence.

The broadleaf helleborine is a rare orchid that can withstand quite active recreation and can be found even in the most disturbed areas. It belongs to the fifth category of rarity.

The preservation of these species is an indicator of a healthy forest. Specialists from the capital Department of Nature Management and Environmental Protection urge visitors to be careful when walking around Losiny Ostrov. If visitors are lucky enough to come across one of these wonderful plants, they can admire their appearance and take a photo, but it is important to remember that they must not be picked or damaged.

For Summer Resident Day, which is celebrated on July 23, Main Archives of Moscow spoke about his collections and archival materials posted in the virtual museum "Moscow – with care for history".

Vacationing at the dacha has long been an integral part of the summer lifestyle. It combines the opportunity to get away from the noise of the metropolis and grow something with your own hands. For many, gardening and vegetable gardening have become a favorite hobby, and the country vacation itself – a real ritual.

In the selection "Where are you rushing to, summer?" The exhibition presents photographs not only from resorts and pioneer camps, but also from summer cottages. The works of Boris Ignatovich, Lev Reinberg, Yakov Berlin and other famous Soviet photographers convey the atmosphere of summer in all its fullness: from cozy gatherings in the garden to noisy children's games in nature.

At the online exhibition "Our Family" The favorite types of summer leisure of Muscovites are captured, and dacha recreation occupies a special place in this series. Warmth, silence, family peace – all this makes country life truly memorable. The exhibition presents works by masters of Russian photography, including Efim Pavlov, Vyacheslav Un Da-sin and Boris Vdovenko.

The project occupies a special place in the virtual museum "Moscow Photo Chronicle"— the second stage of the campaign "Moscow — with care for history". Thanks to the participation of city residents, the funds of the Main Archive are replenished with unique photographs that capture family trips, work at the dacha, gardening and summer life in different decades of the 20th century. The photographs depict children on summer vacation, apple orchards, beds and berry bushes. These images evoke warm memories filled with joy. You can see them in the virtual museum "Moscow — with care for history" in the hall "1950-2000", in the section "Collections", subsection "Moscow Photo Chronicle".

Residents of the capital can transfer items, photographs, letters and documents for permanent storage to the Main Archives through the My Documents public service centers. To do this, you only need to have your passport with you. All materials are digitized and placed in the virtual museum "Moscow – with care for history". They are used in exhibitions, publications and other socially significant initiatives of the Main Archives of Moscow.
