The official city construction standard of one parking place for every 70 to 80 square meters of total space in a building is outdated and often ignored, Penny Lane Realty said in a rating of Moscow's business centers' parking facilities.
The real average for the city's office buildings is one space for every 200 to 300 square meters, Maxim Zhulikov, head of the company's office real estate department, said in the report last week.
Zhulikov suggested that one space for every 50 square meters of space rented would be the ideal proportion. The realtor ranked office complexes by this criterion and found that only one, Voentorg on Ulitsa Vozdvizhenka, conformed to it. Moskva-City's Tower 2000 met the criterion by 67 percent and North Tower by 57.6 percent. Tenth-ranked Novinsky Passazh conformed by a mere 31 percent.

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.
