Trees will be replaced with maples in the area where they've been felled.
Ordzhonikidze Street in Moscow is set to undergo a significant transformation, with plans to plant large maple trees along its revamped pathway. According to MCKP "Dorozhnoe Khozyaystvo," work is already underway on a section from Lenin Street to Sovietskaya, near the Pushkin Gymnasium. The project involves the demolition of curb stones and the removal of construction debris on one side, while a foundation for a new sidewalk and planting area has been prepared on the other side.
A notable change will be the removal of old, dying trees that have hindered landscaping work. The administration's plans for the fall include planting maples over four meters tall. The mature size and developed root system of these trees are expected to facilitate the quick establishment of new greenery.
Previously, old birches and limes were removed, and the new maples are expected to provide an immediate visual impact after planting. The efforts to enhance Ordzhonikidze Street are expected to greatly improve access to Gorky Park, with the work on the street's descent already seeing the base layer applied, making the walk to the park more enjoyable than before.
While there is no recent information suggesting that Ordzhonikidze Street (not to be confused with the city of Ordzhonikidze in Ukraine, which is currently experiencing unrelated military actions) is undergoing a comprehensive renovation project, the greening initiative and improvements to the descent to Gorky Park offer hope for a more inviting and verdant urban environment. The details appear to be unfolding in stages, promising a gradual transformation of Ordzhonikidze Street and a more accessible Gorky Park for Moscow residents and visitors.
