Moscow is preparing a large-scale transformation of its western regions as part of the "Big City" project, an expansion of the existing Moscow City economic cluster. Moscow authorities plan to create over 260,000 high-tech jobs here, which will radically transform the region's economy.
Three Districts – One Business Center
The Big City project will unite three promising districts:
-
Khoroshevsky will become an area for high-end offices and coworking spaces.
-
Khoroshevsky will become a hub for innovative startups.
-
Presnya Center will retain its financial core while expanding its business infrastructure.
Over 800 hectares will feature:
- 22 million square meters of new development (50% commercial)
- 7 technology zones with laboratories and R&D centers
- 3 logistics centers equipped with automated systems
Future infrastructure
The development of the "megacity" includes revolutionary transportation solutions:
-
Smart transfer hubs at Khoroshevskaya, City, and Sherepikha stations
-
Climate-controlled elevated walkways
Moscow's chief architect noted: "We It's not just workplaces that are being created, but entire ecosystems—from kindergartens for employees' children to heated bike paths.
Economic Breakthrough
Experts estimate that "Big City" will provide:
- A 15% increase in the capital region's GDP
- Over $400 billion in private investment
- 170 new international companies to the Moscow economy
The project has been granted Special Economic Zone status, offering tax incentives for IT companies and startups. The first residents are expected to begin operations in 2026.
The Moscow mayor emphasized, "This is not just a business district, but a prototype of a future city that takes into account all aspects of modern life."
