of Cathedral and Palace. In 1931 the competition for the design of a Palace
of Soviets was announced. It had to be located on the embankment of the Moskva
river between Soimonovsky passage, Volkhonka and Lenivka streets. Cathedral
of Christ the Savior was to be demolished. (in 1996 it was reconstructed)
The
site is a large, flat, green space around the existing Central Artist Gallery.
The spot that I choose is occupied now by the Sculptures Garden, which is
a part of exhibition, already. It consists of sculptures and monuments of
the Soviet Communist Party leaders, famous Soviet people, and slogans built
in metal or stone.
The
site is located inside the Garden Ring - in the center of Moscow, on the
corner between the Moskva river and Garden Ring street, within historically
significant buildings and places.
