Architecture and Planning of Coal Industry Cities in West Siberia in the 1940-50s
Abstract
The paper deals with architecture and planning coal industry cities of West Siberia in the years of 1946-1956. In the 1930s, such cities represented a conglomerate of unsettled villages with low-rise buildings. They were located in coal industry territories near mines, far from large rivers. In the 1940-50s, another approach was used. New cities were located along large rivers and organized as compact city-ensembles with multi-storey buildings. Most vividly, new principles were embodied in Mezhdurechensk. The following factors contributed to a wide use of this approach. The introduction of new coal mining technologies strongly intensified the lack of territories. In the 1930s, designers gained extensive experience in working in such local condition as specific geology, landscape and departmental approach. The research is based on archival sources.
