I recommend this publication for the variety of incisive views expressed on a current topic of great interest and importance to Muscovites, guests from other parts of Russia and abroad, and others that will be affected by the great city in which we work. The primary use of this material is to provide base for discussion on city planning. Our Graduate School prides itself on our bi-annual guest weeks, held for our Master’s degree students. All of us contribute to them and this publication gathers our participants’ texts on the priorities related to the imminent tripling of the size of our capital city. The assignment was expressed as: Part 1 = 4 pages on the 4 most important keys to success in order (most important being first) Part 2 = 4 paragraphs on keys 5-8. 4 GREATER MOSCOW – THE KEYS TO SUCCESS Our authors predominantly come from Moscow and other regions of Russia. They are joined by an increasing number of guests from abroad on our courses. We have included their birth places (although some of those born outside Moscow have lived longer in the city than those born here). The expression of their views shows deep personal interest in, and concern about life in the capital today and the enlargement of Moscow, regardless of their origins. Many will live in the enlarged Moscow, with their children and yet-to-be- born dependents, and enjoy the benefits and negotiate the shortcomings of the project. Others will be influenced by Moscow’s international economic impact. Participants wrote the essays in English, despite English being their second or third language. We have limited editing to the minimum. Biographies of authors are included, as is information about the School of Business. I hope that you will find the essays interesting and of value to your students. Your comments will be very welcome. Sincerely, Dmitry Shtykhno, PhD Dean of School of Business, Plekhanov University, Moscow, Russia 5 GREATER MOSCOW – THE KEYS TO SUCCESS Introduction by Zhanna Musatova, PhD, Course Leader, Deputy Dean Borodino’s 1812 combatants would recognize the Kremlin and Red Square but little else of great city over which they fought. The Battle of Moscow’s veterans fought over a city in 1941 that they barely comprehend today. As recently as twenty years ago, Moscow’s wide roads accommodated the inexorably- rising number of vehicles. Growth of Moscow City Mikhail Malev’s graph shows how Moscow’s population has dramatically soared during the last decade and continued a trend of the last century. (Names in bold indicate our authors.) Moscow City now has the highest population of any European city. The exact number is disputed, but is at least 12 million. Complementing this are millions who live outside Moscow City, but work in the city, further stretching its resources. Activity is centered around the Kremlin, although new business districts have recently appeared as development land has become scarcer. (Gery Moulas): Just over 2 million jobs, or 38%, are concentrated on 6.5% of the city territory, in a five kilometer radius from the Kremlin. Most Muscovites live in flats, many in high-rise. Recently, this has promoted an exodus of the wealthier, who have chosen to live outside the city and commute to it for work. 6 GREATER MOSCOW – THE KEYS TO SUCCESS The magnificent metro underground system has 180 stations, but carries more people than any other in the world. Overground train systems, buses, microbuses, and a few light railways and trams complement the metro, but Moscovites have increasingly used cars for their travel. This has led to congestion, as roads cannot be built fast enough to accommodate them. Traffic management systems, including parking, have not enjoyed investment at appropriate levels. Moscow attracts people to the widest variety of highest-paid jobs in Russia and offers much to CIS country citizens who come legally and otherwise. The city is a cultural and heritage centre, especially around the Kremlin: a magnet for tourists and residents. Companies, both Russian and foreign, are attracted by the presence of their clients and suppliers and the prestige of an office in the capital. Attempts to decentralize companies (VTB bank, Gazprom) and state functions (Supreme Court) to

    Moscow Guide Neurolinguistics Laboratory 2016 How to get to Moscow from the airport There are two ways of getting from the airport to the city: taxi and train. Aeroexpress train We advise you to choose an aeroexpress train that goes to the metro station near to the center. This transport is faster and more reliable, especially during rush hours. Unfortunately, it is closed for several hours at night. You can buy tickets online at the website and at the airport at ticket machines or ticket office. You can also pay directly at the tourniquet with a Paypass or PayWave card (in this case you do not need to buy the tickets). For timetables, tickets and more information please see https://aeroexpress.ru/en.html Taxi We strongly advise you not to use the taxis that are offered at the airport, they are usually overpriced. The most convenient taxi services with mobile applications are Uber https://www.uber.com/ , Yandex Taxi https://taxi.yandex.ru/ , and Gett http://gett.com/ . If you are a first time Gett user, you can use a promocode GTPYNWK to get a 400rub bonus for your ride. All the services have special fixed tariffs for trips to and from airports. You can also prebook a taxi for a fixed airport-to-Moscow tariff. The prices range from 1500 to 2000r. The companies with websites in English are: https://mostaxi.ru/en/ , http://www.msk-taxi.ru/eng Getting around Except taxis (more information is given in the previous section) there are different types of public transport: underground transport called metro and surface transport (trams, buses, trolleybuses and marshrutkas).

  • Street Retail Segment, a Number of Retail Sectors Kept Disappearing from the Traditional Tenant Pool
    15 years on the Russian Retail Property Market RUSSIAN RETAIL PROPERTY MARKET REPORT 2013 HIGHLIGHTS Retail Property Market Report by MAGAZIN MAGAZINOV 2013 The year of 2013, especially the end of it, was marked by the lowered consumption rate among Russian consumers. Anticipation of a new crisis wave and negative predictions for the year of 2014 lead to a significant decrease in the consumer confidence index, shifting the focus of consumer behavior from buying to saving. Nevertheless, it is still too early to forecast negative trends for the market. There needs to be a more careful analysis of the trend data gathered in Q1–Q2 2014. In 2013 Moscow retail property market witnessed the unprecedentedly low amount of newly commissioned space with the unusually high amount of it planned for 2014. Provided that at least 50% of the space announced appears on the market in 2014, this will break the record of 2009. Last year Tashir Group of Companies became the most active developer on the capital's market with the two new shopping centers having become the largest openings of 2013. These amounted for 60% of the total GLA commissioned in 2013. Moscow retail property market demonstrates a clear cyclical pattern in the developer activity. Periods of recession - which usually last about 4 years - are followed by 1–2 years of active new retail space commission. Besides, for each new cycle the oscillatory amplitude grows larger. For example, after 4 years of stagnation and unprecedentedly low levels of new retail space development on the Moscow market (from 2005 till 2008), the next two years witnessed a burst of activity and record amounts of new retail space supply.
