Developer SU-155 has finished construction of the Moscow housing complex in Tskhinvali, capital of the breakaway South Ossetia republic.
The company carried out the construction on behalf of the Moscow city administration under a Moscow government resolution of Aug. 11, 2008, on providing assistance to South Ossetia. Investment in the project totaled 2.5 billion rubles ($88.2 million). The funds came from the city budget.
In Tskhinvali, which has been severely affected by military conflict between Russia and Georgia, 210 cottage-type houses and four three-story, multiple-entrance buildings were built in a 60-hectare area. The total area of housing construction is 60,000 square meters.
Also built nearby were a school accommodating 600 students, two kindergartens for 110 children each and a shopping center. A fitness center was rebuilt.
More than 3,000 people are expected to live in the Moscow complex.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
