The book is devoted to the formation of the motor transport infrastructure of the Soviet capital, carried out by the Moscow Municipal Services (the Municipal Services Department of the Moscow City Council) in the second half of the 1920s. The central place in it is given to the history of the design and construction of the complex of buildings of the bus depot on Bakhmetyevskaya Street. The enterprise took three years, from 1926 to 1928, during which Moscow transport engineers, officials and builders were busy implementing the idea of a grandiose, rationally arranged garage. Based on materials from the periodical press and archival documents, the author reconstructs with unprecedented detail the events associated with the construction of an object that had no analogues in pre-revolutionary and Soviet Russia. Particular attention in the book is given to the actors in this story. The publication is addressed to all those interested in the history of Moscow and its architectural heritage of the first half of the twentieth century.
