Principles of organizing new residential development in the peripheral areas of the single-industry towns of the middle Volga

Abstract

The article discusses current problems and trends in the residential development in the peripheral territories of single-industry towns in Russia. Based on international research, a comparative analysis of the periphery state of cities in Europe, the United States and Asia is presented. An architectural and urban planning analysis of the territories of five single-industry towns in the middle Volga region of the Russian Federation was carried out in order to identify territories suitable for the organization of a residential environment. Based on the research carried out, the principles of organizing the spatial environment of the peripheral zones of single-industry towns in Russia are defined and formulated. The proposed methods of forming architectural and urban planning space can form the basis of urban planning activities at the stage of development of master plans, as well as become the basis for the formation of a new comfortable living environment.
