TECHNOPARK MORDOVIA Saransk (RU) 2008 - Expert opinion

The settlement of the Insar floodplain is divided into two settlement areas: TechnoPark in the north and Wasserstadt in the south. The landscape gap with the reactivated river arm and extensive use of open space is created between the new settlements. In contrast, the edge of the waterfront facing the old town will be urban with a promenade, various staircases, squares and activity areas; this is where the city will step onto the River Insar for the first time. Use as a sports and leisure park is proposed for the areas west of the Insar.
