Through this variety of imagery, the atlas depicts Moscow’s reconstruction during the 1930s. Many images show scenes of Moscow both before and after reconstruction, illustrating the projected development over time. Some projections imagine as far ahead as 1945, with estimated growth of entities such as schools, canals and power plants. In addition to featured themes, maps also show city limits, railways, roads, metro-lines, bus-lines, canals, bodies of water, drainage, topography, vegetation and the outskirts of the city.
