The article informs that in May of this year, at Arch-Moscow, Russia's most prominent architectural exposition, one of the central pieces on display was an eloquent tribute to several torn-down historic buildings. Three stylized gravestones, accompanied by photographs and epitaphs, acknowledged the loss of the Manezh Square gates, the Voentorg (a famous Soviet-era department store), and the famous Hotel Moskva, which embodied a spectrum of more than a hundred years of architectural history. These edifices represent the microcosm of the preservation crisis unfolding in Moscow amid one of the largest construction booms in city's history.
