History
Origins
Plots 17 and 18 of the MIBC were to be used originally for the Russia Tower, a supertall skyscraper designed by Norman Foster, but the Great Recession and issues with investors forced development of the project to be cancelled.[5] On 2014, ownership of half of the plot was transferred to Turkish company Rönesans Holding.[6]
As general contractor, Rönesans Holding hired ST Towers LLC to develop a new complex, the Renaissance Moscow Towers, later renamed the Neva Towers.[5] The project would also be developed by the SPEECH Architectural Bureau in partnership with American companies HOK and FXCollaborative, with public spaces designed by Hirsch Bedner Associates.[7] The management of the complex claimed to receive a LEED Gold certificate.[8]
Construction
Sales of the apartments in the complex opened in September 2016.[7] Investments for the complex exceeded $1 billion later in November 2016.[9]
On 15 October 2018, Tower 2 of the Neva Towers was architecturally topped out when work on the 79th floor was completed. Construction of the first stage of the project is 70% completed.[10]
Design
The plots Neva Towers are to be built on have a total area of 2.41 hectares. The total area of the complex will be 349.2 thousand square meters. The complex will be composed of a single four-story stylobate where the two towers will be built on top. Tower 2 will be a 79-story residential skyscraper with a height of 345 meters. Tower 1 will be a 69-story skyscraper with a height of 302 meters with office space proposed on the 28th floor. In the complex would be a private park with an area of seven thousand square meters. In addition, the complex would have a hotel and a fitness center with a swimming pool located on Tower 2. There is also a parking lot with a planned capacity of 2,040 cars for workers and residents of the complex. Stone plates of light stone are to be used to decorate the skyscrapers.[7][8][11][12]
