Moscow at the Crossroads of Architectural History

By Anton Razmakhnin The Moscow News
Sourse: Moscow News
A new campaign to rename some of Moscow's streets and sites was kicked off at the end of 2006. The program focuses on Soviet-era titles that still appear on the map, as well as other so-called 'ugly' names.
The strategy of beautifying the geographical names of Moscow sites is being forwarded by two camps. One, represented by right-wing persons from the Union of Orthodox Citizens, together with some Duma deputies and the editor-in-chief of the Moskovskie Novosti newspaper, Vitaly Tretyakov, has created an activist group called 'The Return.' Its goal is to bring back the historical names of particular towns and streets. Special attention is to be given to the spiritual meaning of toponyms; e.g. Professor Mikhail Gorbanevsky, specialist in toponymics, has pointed out that there are too many Communist German-derived names attached to Russian streets.
