urban districts forming central Moscow
The public garden is designed to contain a number of entrances in
various sides of the garden.
Climate
• Moscow has a humid continental climate
with warm, sometimes hot, somewhat humid
summers and long, cold winters.

Design decisions
Various trees were planted on the southern and western
sides of the park, and this resulted in:

1. Reduce the noise emanating from these sides.

2. Treating and mitigating the summer winds from

the southwest.

3. Shading the southwest area, as the sun on this side is the

most annoying.

4. Increased security, as the area was somewhat isolated

from the street.
