Renovation of Khrushchev: program

The process of reconstruction, improving the appearance and comfort of living residents of the capitals begins renovation. Khrushchev, perhaps not all and not equally obsolete, if we consider only the walls and roofs. However, almost all the equipment of communications - heating, electrical wiring, water and gas supply, sewerage - has almost completely disappeared. The only thing that can help here is the renovation planned by the capitals.

Khrushchev could be repaired, as, for example, done in Kaliningrad, and it would turn out just as beautifully, but communications there were hardly replaced completely, and without this there is no sense in overhaul. Build housing on new technologies will cost the country much cheaper. In addition, people will live in more spacious and modern apartments, even the area of residence will not change.

What is Renovation?

The Khrushchevs are for the most part on the threshold of unsuitability for people's lives, and there is no need to wait until the moment when accidents begin to occur. Renovation in civil construction implies not only a complete replacement of old housing with a new one. This, first of all, is an innovative process relating to the sphere of fixed capital, where the very functional purpose of the reconstructed objects is changing.

The ECE Committee held a number of international conferences, seminars, symposiums on housing and urban development. As a result, Europe has stopped at the opinion that the general trend is the maximum preservation of existing buildings, even if they are not historical and not architectural monuments, but simply residential buildings of traditional private building. They are still important enough elements of the city environment. In Germany, whole districts were reconstructed in this way. However, there are unlikely to be preserved buildings like Moscow and St. Petersburg, which are now threatened with renovation. Khrushchev - close, cheap and uncomfortable - was built primarily in the USSR.

Moscow

In May 2017, the Moscow City Duma passed a law promising additional guarantees of property and housing rights for legal entities and individuals, which will be affected by the renovation of the Moscow housing stock. When a similar federal law comes out, the renovation of the Khrushchev will start in the capital, 2017 will be a turning point, the old houses will massively demolish entire areas as potentially dangerous and practically unfit for living. Many residents of the capital are happy about this circumstance. Some are afraid and do not trust their authorities.

Nevertheless, a corresponding program for renovating Khrushchev was developed. Residents do not have to spend their savings on the purchase of new housing, even with a move they will help. The demolition of the dilapidated five-story buildings and the relocation of their tenants to modern, well-maintained houses is exactly what the renovation of the Khrushchev in Moscow suggests. Muscovites will receive free of charge equivalent apartments for living space in the area of residence in absolutely new houses built according to the most progressive technologies. It is supposed to build monolith-brick buildings for this purpose.

History

Plans for the renovation of the Khrushchev have appeared in the government of Moscow for a long time, since these buildings and so, as they say, without architectural excesses, and even decay, and the capital - the face of the country, it is through its streets that the whole of Russia is judged. The appearance of the city of the same type five-story, very numerous, very spoiled.

A large part of the Khrushchev was built half a century ago, beginning in 1957, although there are two-, three-, four- and five-story buildings in the capital that are much older, whose technical characteristics are similar to those of Khrushchev's type. Almost all such buildings are designed for a period of operation from twenty-five years to fifty. In the coming years, the most recent deadline expires. By the way, the Khrushchev renovation project has been implemented for a very long time - since 1988, and one hundred and sixty thousand families already live in other apartments. Simply, the process is currently accelerating, because the time of operation of such buildings is ending.

Series demolished and unbearable

Nevertheless, in Moscow there will still be a lot of five-story houses that were built in the first period of industrial housing construction. Previously, they were classified as unbearable series, but after technical surveys it became clear that living in them would soon become impossible, the condition of these buildings is already unsatisfactory, and it does not meet any of the modern requirements of comfort and safety.

The housing stock of the capital requires immediate attention and renovation, otherwise all five-story buildings will become emergency. That is why the renovation of the Khrushchev moves at such a rate. Addresses falling under demolition in the near future houses can be found on the site of the administration of the city of Moscow and on the websites of municipalities.

Objections

As a result of promulgating the plans of the mayoralty, a protest movement of residents of houses intended for demolition appeared. Meetings and "for", and "against" gather up to twenty thousand people. Some Moscow officials, apparently, are not themselves aware of the course of renovation, and therefore make contradictory statements. Snow rumble and rumble all kinds of rumors about how Moscow will renovate the Khrushchev. SPb, for example, has been slowly renovating dilapidated housing for a long time, and there was no noise about this. There, even one of the most successful developers is proudly named "Renovation of St. Petersburg." Apparently, St. Petersburg is considered not a vain cultural capital.

And in Moscow they try to challenge the main thesis of the program - Khrushchev really does not make sense to repair. To live in them is extremely inconvenient, they are morally obsolete, and they are ugly, which for the capital could be the only reason. And the reasons are much greater, and the lack of beauty is about the twenty-ninth place. The main thing is the service life, emergency communications. It is not safe to live in them even today. And the renovation program implies the relocation of residents only in a few years.

Emergency Funds

The emergency fund of housing in the capital is growing, and the rate of growth is simply depressing. The demolition of dilapidated houses has not been worked out in vain right now and is being discussed already at the legislative level. Creating a comfortable environment for living is the top goal, and today's tasks relate to the most safety of residents. If major repairs, reconstruction, modernization, restoration could be helped in this problem, they would stop at such a decision, but in this situation it is faster, cheaper, and for residents it is more profitable - just demolition.

Not only are the five-story Khrushchev morally and physically obsolete, they are on the verge of accidents. Mayor Sergei Sobyanin did not in vain call such houses a junk. Opponents point out that the condition close to the emergency was determined not by specialists, but by the residents living in these houses themselves, as well as their deputies. Millions of complaints have accumulated in the municipal economy. Who can know better the condition of his own house, if not the hosts? Data from local governments is quite reliable information.

Law

The Moscow government has already published a preliminary list of four and a half thousand buildings, which are subject to demolition in the first place. All these buildings do not meet modern living conditions, they are dilapidated, and the majority of inhabitants voted for resettlement. Any house from the renovation program can refuse. Voting has already taken place - it was held from May 15 to June 15, 2017.

Moreover, the mayor is sure that the list of houses that fall under demolition needs to be expanded if their residents insist on it. However, the law has not yet been adopted by the State Duma, and therefore it is impossible to find answers to vital issues either in the prefecture or in the government. In addition to the adoption in the State Duma, the law should receive approval from the Federation Council and the president's signature.

If the renovation passes by

If a certain building is not included in the initial list of renovations, in the near future this house will not be demolished, and residents will not have to participate in voting on this program. But it's for now. Mayor Sobyanin says that the opinion of the residents of the capital will be listened to carefully, and if two-thirds of the Khrushchev residents vote at the general meeting for resettlement, the original list will be supplemented, since it is not final.

In addition to the five-story Khrushchev, demolition will be subject to demolition and the old houses are two-four-storeyed, if they are in the same emergency condition. Even the nine-story buildings that got into the quarterly building can enter the renovation program if the residents demand resettlement. The meetings in Moscow are held, both against and for renovation. Opinions were divided.

Series for demolition

The original document says that demolition will be subject to apartment buildings erected during the first period of industrial housing construction, that is, from 1957 to 1968. This includes panel buildings of the series 1MG-300, 1605-AM, II-35, II-32, K-7. This information is on the site of the city's urban policy. It also says that the renovation program will include buildings built before 1957, if their characteristics will be equally disappointing.

Comfortable and sound five-story houses will not be demolished for demolition if their condition is satisfactory. The list already includes some buildings that are not related to the aforementioned period of construction, quite similar to Khrushchev's. Just some of them are already more than a hundred years old, and the others have approached this threshold. In addition, entire districts and some houses where residents protested due to resettlement were excluded from the preliminary list.

New buildings

Where exactly new houses will be built for the residents of the demolished Khrushchev, what they will be like, no one knows for sure, since the best architects of Moscow still work on the projects. But sample projects already exist and they can be viewed on the government's website. Residents will be provided with brand new comfortable apartments with a finishes and preserving the number of rooms.

By area, in most cases, they will exceed the old apartments due to large halls, kitchens and corridors. In addition, for those Muscovites who want to improve their housing conditions, it will probably be done through an additional payment. Large families, huddled by several generations in small-sized Khrushchev, will be resettled.
