Abstract

The author reviews the history of the birth of the master plan for the socialist city of Magnitogorsk in connection with new publications and new design materials. An attempt is made to expand the boundaries of the version of the competition for Soviet and German specialists, the value of all planning projects created in the 1929-1930s is highlighted, and the need for preservation and development of the quarter No. 1 of the Socialist City as a world famous urban planning monument is again pointed out.
