Abstract

The crisis of metropolitan cities is evident in the present-day world. The author attempts to articulate the issues necessary to comprehend the depth of this crisis in the conditions of the unprecedented development of mass media, possibilities of teleworking, military and epidemiologic perils etc. The author raises doubts about the necessity of traditional centers in Big cities. He comes to the conclusion that Architecture of contemporary centers becomes publicity for Utopia.
