History

Perspective
In 1918, several architectural workshops led by Alexei Shchusev and Ivan Zholtovsky were created under the Moscow Council. In 1932, the Architectural and Planning Committee was created under Presidium of the executive committee of the City and Moscow Council. Afterwards, the Planning Department of Moscow Council was formed in 1933, as well as of 11 planning workshops.[3]
In 1941, the Architectural and planning Department of Moscow Council (AGTU) has been formed. Ten years later, by decree of the Council of Ministers of the USSR “on enlargement of town-planning organizations and liquidation of small design offices” was adopted on April 6, 1951. Similar documents were prepared by Moscow City Executive Committee on May 10, 1951, as well as the Department for Architecture affairs – on May 17, 1951.[4]
As a result, in June 1951, Genplan was created. The ten year reconstruction plan of Moscow served as the basis for working out the various variants of siting, carrying out their comparative technical and economic analysis.[5] On 1 February 1952, the Government of the USSR approved the 1951-1960 master plan. The 1952 master plan, as well as the previous one, pointed out the necessity to form a protective green zone near the borders of the capital. The idea of construction of a ring road around Moscow was also broached.[6]
