Developers are singling out industrial zones as huge land reserves that can be used to expand the city within its current limits. Abandoned hectares are quickly transformed for the better: old factories are replaced by modern residential areas and whole neighbourhoods with elaborate social infrastructure and business centres emerge.
Special attention is paid to ecology: city space is greatly improved by the addition of many boulevards, green embankments and parks. Depressing territories of former factories such as ZiL (Lichachev’s factory), Moscow Metallurgical Plant «Serp i Molot», Trekhgornaya manufaktura, Tushino Airfield, «Grayvoronovo» industrial areas, «Lenino», «Perovo», Nataginskyi Zaton, the area around Belorusskyi railway station and other previously abandoned places have become comfortable city spaces.
