Moscow City

Prosperous country must have not only the banks, stock exchanges, telegraphs, and skyscrapers. It has now become fashionable.
Skyscrapers are in New York, Chicago, Singapore, Hong Kong, Sydney, Frankfurt and even Afro-Arab capital of European culture Paris.
There are now in Moscow, the highest in Europe. It can not but rejoice.




In Moscow, began to create such a masterpiece in the late '90s, and plans to finish at the end of the 2010s. MIBC Moscow City (Moscow International Business Center "Moscow City") is located on the banks of the river Moscow on Presnensky quay kilometers in 4 and a half to the west of the Kremlin. Location pretty good - within the Third Ring Road, but outside the historic center, on the site of a former quarry and wasteland - no historical monuments in the construction did not suffer in the shadow of skyscrapers are not lost.
