Moscow International Business Centre


This strip along the Moscow River is the site of one of the capital’s largest ongoing urban projects, also known as 'Moscow City'. Here, skyscrapers of glass and steel tower 20 storeys over the rest of the city, shining like beacons to Moscow’s wheeler-dealers and fortune-seekers. The 93-storey Tower East (Vostok) of the Federation complex is the tallest building in both Russia and Europe.
