The high-rise residential complex (23 Avtozavodskaya str., area 34, No. 9) consists of two sections, the difference in the number of storeys between them is 14 floors. The sections are located on a common stylobate divided at the ground level into two independent sections by a pedestrian zone. The stylobate comprises commercial, public and office premises with entrances around the perimeter. The main entrance groups are oriented to the pedestrian boulevard. The residential part begins on the fourth floor, and the residential floors from 16 to 24 hang over the ground in the form of a giant console-cube, as if taken out of the main volume and separated by a pass-through arch. The entrances to the residential part are from the street through the lobby, each of which also has a reception area with entrance control. All entrances to both the commercial and residential parts are designed to have no thresholds. The apartments will be of superior comfort class, from studios to two-level and five-bedroom apartments. The complex has a variable number of storeys 2-25-39. The facade of the building will be fully made of glass, with a complex crystal structure and many faceted surfaces, giving the tower a more complex sculptural silhouette. The underground floors have a parking lot jointly with Lot No. 10. The total area of the tower will be 61,620 square meters, and the number of residents, according to preliminary estimates, will be about 800 people.
