Architect`s idea was based on exposition and preservation of view corridors to and from the development directed towards local towering dominant, a neoclassic architectural piece of Soviet era. This new visual line formed the new pedestrian public street, which crosses the territory of residential complex dividing it in two uneven parts. The street has the same orientation as local urban planning regulations prescribe. Half way in the middle of the street there is public square with shallow water pond, main entrances to the shopping area with restaurant.
