Moscow Expands KRT Rollout With Shcherbinka Plan After Five New Projects Approved
The latest package underscores City Hall’s push to turn underused industrial land into housing‑linked districts through its comprehensive redevelopment tool.
Overview
- Deputy Mayor Vladimir Efimov outlined a four‑plot KRT in Shcherbinka totaling about 14.5 hectares and more than 233,000 sq. m of development, including 166,800 sq. m of housing and roughly 66,500 sq. m of social and administrative facilities.
- Officials project over 1,600 jobs and around 40.4 billion rubles of investment for the Shcherbinka plan near Silikatnaya MCD‑2 station, where existing clinics, schools and shops are within walking distance.
- Planned Shcherbinka facilities include a nearly 30,000 sq. m sports‑and‑leisure complex, offices, a library, utility spaces, a 350‑space parking structure and a kindergarten for 250 children.
- The day prior, Mayor Sergey Sobyanin approved five KRT projects across several districts totaling 17.64 hectares with plans for roughly 340,000 sq. m of housing, plus a Mosvodokanal building, technoparks and other production assets.
- The city reports two scales of activity: 160 KRT projects approved or underway over about 1,600 hectares, while Sobyanin now says roughly 400 concepts are in development targeting over 70 million sq. m of real estate and about 1 million jobs.
