Twenty percent of the construction contracts the new Moscow city administration has reviewed — a total of 53 — have been annulled, Vedomosti reported.
A city commission plans to review all 1,175 contracts with the city. Most of the 53 contracts being canceled now have missed deadlines, officials in the Mayor's Office said.
Inteko, City, RGI, Sistema-Hals and DSK-1 are among the developers affected by the cancellations. City is in danger of losing its 180,000-square-meter project in the Moskva-City business center. DSK-1 could lose a 90,000-square-meter section of the Ivanovsky development. "We don't object," an unidentified DSK-1 spokesman was quoted as saying about the information.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
