“The newly built complex Kuntsevo Plaza was faced with a challenging task, namely, looking into the future and defining its own time. While working on the project, we tried to make predictions regarding the needs of people, living in Moscow and the requests of lessees, which would become actual no later than tomorrow. At present we can pride ourselves on the achieved results. Making use of best practices of a multinational team, we succeeded in the construction of an absolutely ground-breaking complex, which is aimed at bringing the comfort of the metropolis’s population onto new living standards”, – states the Enka TC CEO Murat Duran.
