PJSC Magnitogorsk Iron and Steel Works (MMK) has launched a public tender on its online-trading platform to choose a project designer to create a sketch, design and working plan for a museum and educational complex, park area and sports cluster in the city of Magnitogorsk.
The announced tender is held in the framework of Attraction, a large multifunctional project for the development of the urban environment, due to be implemented in the South-Western part of Magnitogorsk. The area of land under development belongs to MMK. The total area of the plot is 357.3 hectares. The MMK management’s initiative for the exploration and development of the land is supported by the authorities of the city and the Investment Promotion Agency of the Chelyabinsk region.

“The people of Magnitogorsk deserve to live in a fitting urban environment, to have all the opportunities for recreation, physical education and sports, and the possibility to lead a healthy lifestyle. The implementation of this project will allow a focus on green landscaped areas, modern high-level facilities, which allow for relaxation, educational and cultural enrichment and high-quality medical services. MMK will make every effort to ensure that the Attraction project is implemented in full and truly becomes a place of attraction for both Magnitogorsk residents and guests of the city,” said MMK’s Chairman of the Board of Directors Victor Rashnikov.
